Instagram 404 issue

[notBradPitt]

I'm getting [instagram][error] HttpError: '404 Not Found' for 'https://www.instagram.com/api/v1/users/web_profile_info/' error for Instagram. Cookies are provided and was working yesterday. Oddly, the page still works normally when opened on Browser

This is just a bad error message for "User not found", I think.

$ gallery-dl instagram.com/asdwqerwerf
[instagram][error] HttpError: '404 Not Found' for 'https://www.instagram.com/api/v1/users/web_profile_info/'

$ gallery-dl instagram.com/instagram

Thank you, you're correct.

I ran multiple tests (even modified the API URL) that yielded the same result, but I forgot to account for error on my part. Turns out I was clearing username variables before it was passed to gallery-dl.

Everything works as expected now
