Data mapping issue: Instagram image scraping no more works #471

I am trying to use Zeeschuimer to scrape images from Instagram. I believe instagram changed their data formatting recently leading to the below two errors. This stopped working early this week.

  1. If the images are from the search explorer then no images are scraped with error "MapItemException (item 1): Unable to map item: KeyError-'like_count'"
  2. If the images are scraped from Instagram handles we get the images with a warning "The following fields are missing for this item and will be replaced with a default value: location_name, location_latlong, location_city"

Environment details:

  • Using Firefox with latest zeeschuimer on MacOS 14.6.1
  • Using latest 4cat installed through docker
