Login activity - was this you?

"We've noticed a new login from a device that you don't usually use"

I always get an email by instagram when I login with instagrapi. Not sure if this might lead to issues in the future.
In the security settings I told over and over that the login was by me, but that doesn't help. Is there a way to solve this?

Thank you a lot for this repro!

@cgtinker Save your session

cl.login(...)
cl.dump_settings('/path/to/file.json')

Next time

cl.load_settings('/path/to/file.json')
cl.login(...)

And always use one IP (either from the same subnet)

I get this error when I try to load the settings, the settings.json file is saved in the same folder, the info is filled but it doesn't logs in when I use load_settings command:
instagrapi.exceptions.LoginRequired: login_required

Snippet of my code:
cl = Client()
cl.load_settings('settings.json')
cl.login(username, password)

Works when used without load_settings tho

Same issue here. I also receive the loginRequired exception when using the load_settings right before login with the previously used settings.

did you find any way to solve this issue?

Yes, I stopped learning python

You might need to use set_settings if you are not doing it already. Right in between load_settings() and login(). Find an example below, taken from login_user() snippet.

IG has flagged ur settings. Delete them and recreate new session info, store it and when you need to relog use the new session info.

LoginRequired = Relog (Delete session info. Generate new info)

How to generate new ones please ? I noticed that the default settings are being used by all instagrapi users (I guess). IS there a valid way to generate accurate user agents and devices ? Thank you

I am also looking for a solution to the same problem. Here I use the device modification method（https://subzeroid.github.io/aiograpi/usage-guide/interactions.html）, but I don’t know how to modify the uuids inside.
