FAQ

What is 'INSTAGRAM_2FA_SEED'?

If you have enabled 2FA on your Instagram account, and you set it up through an auth app like Authy or Google Authenticator, you were provided with a QRcode / a seed! This seed allow to generate the 2FA 6 digits code, required to login in your account. You can found it, either when setting up 2FA or in your auth application (Usually, you'll have an "Edit" button on the account)

Is it safe for my Instagram account?

Automating anything on Instagram is against their TOS, thus, I cannot take any responsability if the usage of this program leads to a ban.
However, the library used is built to avoid as much as possible any detection. Furthermore, as this program is only posting once a day, it shouldn't be flagged.

If you are worried for your credentials, which you should always be, you can check by yourself the code of both this program and instagrapi.
