It happend randomly
Hi, I'm using this package for a year. about 3 days ago I get a fake
challenge_requiredfrom IG when using this package. The reason I'm calling it FAKE is that when I request again with the same account (even without the need to re-login) I can get a response. the fake challenge_required occurs randomly. for example, 33% of my total request raised this error. Do anyone else faced with this issue currently? If you know how I can resolve it please let me know. Thanks in advancedexample FAKE response (I'm using proxy): {"message":"challenge_required","challenge":{"url":"https://i.instagram.com/challenge/?next=/api/v1/users/123456789/info/", "api_path":"/challenge/", "hide_webview_header":true,"lock":true,"logout":false, "native_flow":true,"flow_render_type":0}, "status":"fail"}
