Group Doesn't exist.

Describe the bug
I'm trying to scrape a Facebook Group data but couldn't do that as I am facing following error :
ScraperException: Code container ID marker not found (does the group exist?)
How to reproduce
import snscrape
# Fetch the Facebook posts
count = 10
for i, post in enumerate(snscrape.modules.facebook.FacebookGroupScraper('instantdata').get_items()):
if i > count:
break
This is the shortest possible code that causes the error.
Expected behaviour
import snscrape
# Fetch the Facebook posts
count = 10
for i, post in enumerate(snscrape.modules.facebook.FacebookGroupScraper('instantdata').get_items()):
if i > count:
break
This is the code I am using to scrape data and it should return me scraped data.
