Unable to login accounts.

i'm using 0.6
i'm unable to login accounts.
the only way working is copy pasting cookies, which is pretty annoying and slow to do when adding accounts.

Can you tell me how to copy-pasting cookies? Because my login also didn't work.

I have the same problem, i tried with different accounts and always get the same error message:

NameError: name 'a' is not defined

Can you tell me how to copy-pasting cookies? Because my login also didn't work.

@dwicak Login to a account with your browser, open developement tools, find the main request informations, copy the cookie header string of this request and paste it in the cookie parameter of the add_account function.

Can you copy and paste your code, of course, without your valid cookies? I still don't understand.

@dwicak it's in the readme of the repo.

await api.pool.add_account("user3", "pass3", "u3@mail.com", "mail_pass3", cookies=cookies)

Hi there. I restore behaviour from v0.5.0, now possible again to pass login flow without email / email_password. Email check before login can be done with email_first param in login method or --email-first from cli.

See changelog: https://github.com/vladkens/twscrape/releases/tag/v0.7.0

This looks like email blocked. If it not tell more details, please.

1. Open https://twitter.com/
2. Click right click anywhere on the page > Inspect (last item in menu)
3. Click Console in the top
4. Type document.cookie and press enter
5. Copy string result

Other way:

1. Open https://twitter.com
2. Type into url: javascript:window.prompt("Cookies:", document.cookie) (type javascript: manually because browser will cut off it) and press enter
3. Copy cookies & paste where you need this

Note: You can add this code as bookmark

One more way:
Use extensions like https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/%E3%82%AF%E3%83%83%E3%82%AD%E3%83%BCjson%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1%E3%82%A4%E3%83%AB%E5%87%BA%E5%8A%9B-for-puppet/nmckokihipjgplolmcmjakknndddifde

Thank you. I can add accounts using cookies now. But I got an error like this:

2023-08-02 14:50:21.928 | INFO | twscrape.accounts_pool:get_for_queue_or_wait:260 - No account available for queue "SearchTimeline". Next available at 01:06:35

I tried to google the error but didn't find anything.

[GunduzYuruyen]

No account available for queue "SearchTimeline".

Did you find a solution for this?

[NoPurposeInLife]

It means your accounts has reached its limit for requests, just wait 15 mins, it says Next available at 01:06:35 on GMT timezone, so just wait and it'll start scraping again 👍
