"instagram.com/USERNAME/?__a=1&__d=dis" returns 404
When requesting an instagram account with the payload: '?__a=1&__d=dis', now returns a 404 page not found. This is used within multiple methods, for example the getIdByUsername() method
When requesting this URL from a browser. It also returns 404.
I'm not sure of a workaround to this yet, if you know anything let me know
Yeah i am afraid that there is no other endpoint for scraping this data. The main endpoint of instagram is still available but that one has high security sadly. The only parameter i found so far is ?__user=0

Yeah, I found the main endpoint: https://i.instagram.com/api/v1/users/web_profile_info/?username=someone and I've been using it in combination with high quality proxies. I haven't had a single failed request, although I haven't quite spammed it to stress test, but it appears to be working consistently
Would you mind adding me on discord to talk about it? jochemcoding is my username thanks!!
