[BUG] Uploading Video with Caption doesn't Upload the Caption

[ConnorVO]

Describe the bug

When uploading a video with a description, the video uploads but the comment doesn't (it just uploads with no description).

From the log below, it shows that the caption is in the POST Data that is sent with send_request.

Hey @ConnorVO,

We did a quick check and this issue looks very darn similar to

• #1230 - Media owner mention in caption
• #1219 - Like hashtags DEBUG - <Response [200]> but not doing it
• #1213 - Can't comment on posts: code 200?

This could be a coincidence, but if any of these issues solves your problem then I did a good job :smile:

If not, the maintainers will get to this issue shortly.

Cheers, Your Friendly Neighborhood ProBot
