Why do I get ChallengeChoice.EMAIL every time when I log in to get the SMS code?

got ChallengeChoice.EMAIL

But in fact, I received a login sms verification code

When I entered the SMS code, I got a login error message

And my account is not linked to Email

Is ChallengeChoice set to Email by default? How can I change it back to SMS?

Me too… and Instagram ask to change password

[tmxd09887]

I guess this is the case. Instagram asked for an SMS verification code, but sent back an email verification code, thus triggering risk control (requiring a password change). The normal process should be to successfully log in after entering the SMS verification code.

Yeah I disabled sms auth. But I can’t disable email auth code… also I don’t know why Instagram ask me to change password, no sense

[jbosolutions]

Do you know how disable all auto codes on Instagram? Did you resolved it?

[tmxd09887]

sms auth is required by Instagram, I don't think it can be disabled

[jbosolutions]

This is the error I get when I put the verification code in console:

ChallengeResolveMixin.challenge_resolve() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

Maybe because I have another account using Instagrapi in same computer?

[tmxd09887]

I don't know how to disable it, but there must be something wrong with the verification code processing.

It means, you should save session data. Reuse it again to avoid asking OTP again

Hello, this is the first time logging in, there is no existing session data

[sunmasters]

Is device data is same?

[tmxd09887]

The device is generated by instagrapi, so it is definitely different from the one used when registering. But the key point is that there is a bug in the process of submitting the SMS verification code.

Maybe API need update. You have to update in your system .

I think you can give user agent as your device?

Yes, this could be a way.
