Unable to fetch high quality image version of ... (Using Instaloader 4.9.3)

See original GitHub issue

Hello guys, so i have an issue, i was unable to download high quality image/video, i’ve been using Instaloader for these couple years and it works fine, some temporary bans here and there and that’s it.

So I’m using some python script, i don’t use the plain command because i need to iterate my download list, these are the codes:

L = instaloader.Instaloader(
    max_connection_attempts=0,
    request_timeout=500.0,
    download_videos=True,
    download_video_thumbnails=False,
    download_geotags=False,
    download_comments=False,
    post_metadata_txt_pattern="",
    save_metadata=False,
    rate_controller=lambda ctx: MyRateController(ctx)
)

L.load_session_from_file("DUMMY_ACCOUNT")

profile = instaloader.Profile.from_username(L.context, id)
    post_iterator = profile.get_posts()
    
    for current_post in post_iterator:
        L.download_post(current_post, id)

Expected behavior Back then it used to be able to download Higher quality of the media files

Error messages and tracebacks Unable to fetch high quality image version of <Post Cc5CmwbvqUA>: JSON Query to api/v1/media/2826301700589921536/info/: HTTP error code 403.
