[duplicate-issues]

Hey @hamdyaea,

We did a quick check and this issue looks very darn similar to

• #83 - [BUG] No handlers could be found for logger "instagram_private_api.errors"
• #82 - Downloading Media.. No handlers could be found for logger "instagram_private_api.errors"
• #79 - [BUG] Upload not working

This could be a coincidence, but if any of these issues solves your problem then I did a good job 😄

If not, the maintainers will get to this issue shortly.

Cheers,
Your Friendly Neighborhood ProBot

I think it is a no go since Instagram is now punishing people for automated tasks they pick up.

[viatekh]

even the example doesn't work, i guess IG has nuked whatever support there was for this...

[exblopz]

I have same problem. Looks like IG delete their API, so anyone who want to post must open IG Apps.

Facebook already close API for Facebook and Instagram. Also change their Policies.
So if you wanna use API for Facebook and Instagram, you should contact them directly.

[MulaTheRadish]

Still no solution, at least I haven't found one yet. Getting error:

Error is >>
    Not Found

Followed by:

raise IOError("Unable to upload.")
OSError: Unable to upload.
