Fix: instagram version endpoint error (#265)
<html> <body> <h2>Fix Instagram checkpoint_required error due to deprecated app version</h2> <h3>Problem</h3> <p>Login and API calls were failing with:</p> <pre><code>checkpoint_required checkpoint_url: https://i.instagram.com/web/unsupported_version/ </code></pre> <p>Instagram deprecated the app version (<code>222.0.0.13.114</code>) that <code>instagram-private-api</code> emulates. When Instagram forces old app versions to upgrade, all sessions using that version get blocked.</p> <h3>Solution</h3> <p>Updated the emulated Instagram app version in <code>instagram-private-api</code>:</p> Field | Old | New -- | -- | -- APP_VERSION | 222.0.0.13.114 | 347.0.0.43.109 APP_VERSION_CODE | 350696709 | 614918025 <h3>Changes</h3> <p>Updated <code>.patches</code> file:</p> <pre><code class="language-diff">-exports.APP_VERSION = '222.0.0.13.114'; -exports.APP_VERSION_CODE = '350696709'; +exports.APP_VERSION = '347.0.0.43.109'; +exports.APP_VERSION_CODE = '614918025'; </code></pre> <h3>After Merging</h3> <p>Users will need to:</p> <ol> <li> <p>Apply the patch:</p> <pre><code class="language-bash">npm ci </code></pre> </li> <li> <p>Delete existing sessions:</p> <pre><code class="language-bash">rm -rf ~/.instagram-cli/users/ </code></pre> </li> <li> <p>Re-login:</p> <pre><code class="language-bash">instagram-cli login -u &lt;username&gt; </code></pre> </li> </ol> </ul></body></html><!--EndFragment--> </body> </html>
