ClientError Bad Request: challenge_required (Code: 400, Response: {"message": "challenge_required", "challenge": {"url": "https://i.instagram.com/challenge/XXXXX/XXXX/", "api_path": "/challenge/XXXXX/XXXXXX/", "lock": true, "logout": false, "native_flow": true}, "status": "fail", "error_type": "checkpoint_challenge_required"})

Describe your issue

Not exactly sure what to describe here, it is no longer working. I also get this error on v0.3.6, so I don't believe it's to do with your added Replay feature.

Fixed the issue by verifying my account with the code. Instagram doesn't like multiple IPs accessing accounts.
