I am trying to post a photo using this library, but it doesn't work...

from instapy_cli import client

username = '*************'
password = '****************'
image = 'img/blank.png'
text = 'This will be the caption of your photo.' + '\r\n' + 'You can also use hashtags! #hash #tag #now'

with client(username, password) as cli:
    cli.upload(image, text)

and the error I get is:

Error parsing error response: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)
Error is >>
    Not Found

Something went bad.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "d:\Documents\Python\spacexLaunchesIG\instagram.py", line 9, in <module>
    cli.upload(image, text)
  File "C:\Users\charl\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\instapy_cli\cli.py", line 153, in upload
    raise IOError("Unable to upload.")
OSError: Unable to upload.

any ideas how to fix this?

I have the same issue...

Me neither. I assume the Instagram API changed and this code didn't.

Can anyone confirm whether this is the case or not?

No idea. I just wanted to let you know guys, I finally got it working with the instabot module. Pretty straightforward.

Time has passed and the problem persists. Does anyone know if they have a solution or should they go to another module?
The fault is
