Hey I'm trying to connect instagram with using proxy and I got this error

Get unexpected response from 'https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/'
Error: 'ProfilePage'

My codes :
settings = { "proxies": { "http": "http://username:password@ip:port", "https": "https://username:password@ip:port", }, } agent = WebAgentAccount( username, logger=logging) agent.auth(password, settings=settings)

I'm pretty sure that my proxy working

I solved this problem using vpn

[kirill568]

I using openvpn on linux, just need a script that enables and disables vpn. Сonfigs for openvpn can be taken here. If you write such a script, could you share it?

But it's not about api connection. It's about new rules of instagram.

If you're trying to access Instagram user profile:
Instagram has just changed the behavior of its web version interface. Now no one can view more than a few users' profiles without being authorized on their servers first. In other words, user profiles are no longer publicly available for servers like ours.
We're currently searching for ways to solve this problem. Sorry for the inconveniences.

The reason of this exception is update function in agents.py . Something must change in there

I get such an error with frequent requests to instagram

[Lip4ik]

When trying to call media using a proxy, it generates a ProfilePage error.

Any solution? @Lip4ik @OlegYurchik @kirill568

Any solution? @Lip4ik @OlegYurchik @kirill568

use vpn.

[beratn]

When you looking people's profile without logged, instagram blocking that behavior. That's why we got this error. So you suggest me that using vpn. It's not a solution, it's fudging @kirill568

[kirill568]

Even if you look at people with registration, you will also get an error. Do you have any solution? @berat703

[beratn]

Why we need to get profile information before login? @kirill568

[kirill568]

I need to take information from bio for further processing, I can go through about 800 accounts, then I get the 'ProfilePage' error, which does not allow me to continue processing. It doesn’t matter to me whether I am authorized or not, because in any case I can read bio. @berat703

I'm developing a SaaS application that allows users to login their account. I'm login 2 accounts successfully then I got ProfilePage error when trying to login third account. That's why I should fix the problem. @kirill568

[kirill568]

Are you logged in from the same machine? @berat703

[beratn]

For now, yes. But they will use proxy for each account connection. @kirill568

[kirill568]

Have you tried using a proxy? It’s just that with this library I couldn’t manage to configure the use of proxies. @berat703

[beratn]

As I remember, I tried to use once 3 months ago and It worked. But I will try again in a week @kirill568

[kirill568]

where did you get the ip addresses?

[beratn]

https://proxy-seller.com @kirill568

[beratn]

Did you implemented 2Fact Auth @kirill568

[kirill568]

No, because it’s not necessary for my tasks @berat703

[ozzyst]

I have this problem too.... And I don`t want buy proxies. Maybe do you have some resolve for it? Maybe I need to stop my script by 24 hours or maybe somewhat else...
