[error] failed to update token at flow_duplication_check

[Abolfazl]

I have been having an issue for the last day logging in to Twitter.

My code is:

search = Search(EMAIL, USERNAME, PASSWORD, save=True, debug=1)

and this returns:

[error] failed to update token at flow_duplication_check

The json data being passed to flow_duplication_check is

{'json': {'flow_token': 'g;XXXXXXXXX:-YYYYYYYYYYY:ZZZZZZZZZZ:3', 'subtask_inputs': [{'subtask_id': 'AccountDuplicationCheck', 'check_logged_in_account': {'link': 'AccountDuplicationCheck_false'}}]}}

which returns:

{'errors': [{'code': 366, 'message': 'flow name LoginFlow is currently not accessible g;XXXXXXXXX:-YYYYYYYYYYY:ZZZZZZZZZZ:3'}]}

Changing for fn in [flow_start, flow_instrumentation, flow_username, flow_password, flow_duplication_check]: to for fn in [flow_start, flow_instrumentation, flow_username, flow_password] fixes the issue but I wanted to see what the underlying issue for this is.

Edit: Nevermind, this fix worked one time but now it returns 404 when trying to poll https://twitter.com/i/api/graphql/nK1dw4oV3k4w5TdtcAdSww/SearchTimeline

The link you provided leads to a 403, have you found a permanent fix for this?

My fix was to just login with cookies instead of explicit credentials

I tried the same thing but I'm unable to use scraper.users_by_ids() for my own user ID.

I keep getting that three checklist print statement telling me to make sure my acc isn't locked and resupply with new cookies.

This has been tried before, and you can get it by polling several times, but it has been changed now. You may only get it once after polling dozens of times. How can we communicate? Add a contact method!
