Description

When using any type of proxy and making any kind of request, the following occurs: IgNetworkError: Instagram API error was made. Unfortunately, I have little data on this error, although it is DEBUG.

Check proxy, or give correct format.

Check proxy, or give correct format.

Proxy works through other services, format set as in the example.

Check response code, it seems it giving 500> status code on Instagram. Or Instagram blocking IP.

[kingbotss]

It is proxy error.

[kostyakoz]

@kingbotss I've tried proxies from different providers, and got the same error. And these proxies work perfectly fine with other libraries which logs in to Instagram, so Instagram doesn't ban their IPs.

share me details (privately). I will check.
