429 error #13

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

I setup the code it seemed to work fine now when I got to turn on the bot I am getting a 429 error and was wondering what might be the problem here.

Request return 429 error! {'message': 'Please wait a few minutes before you try again.', 'status': 'fail'} Request return 405 error! {'message': '', 'status': 'fail'} Request return 404 error! Login success!

Thats the message I get.

How many times have you logged in recently? Instagram will time out requests if there are too many in a given time period.

I dont think I have that many times I mean I left the program to run for a while then it just stopped working or my computer turned off etc when I came back i restarted the program and it kept giving me this error.

I reset it up and it is now working I dont know what the issue was but I have fixed it.

The API is unofficial so Instagram doesn't always act nicely :P
