IG scraping limits #822

Open Siegi96 opened 2 years ago

Does anybody keep track of scraping limits? How many requests per day can be made to internal api (e.g. stories) without getting blocked, using normal proxies (not residential)?

I've unfollowed 50 users every 30 to 60mins (random) until it reaches 500 unfollowed users on a day. When following users I do 25, same range, until 200 followed users on a day but, it is a little more tricky because sometimes IG ask you to complete a challenge which I haven't learn how to do yet. Also I try not execute more than 500 IG requests also on a day. Hope that experience helps.

@adrianvignolo How often do you get challenges from Instagram? Also, how often do your accounts get blocked?
