I am using this PHP code found in the answer on this question : Instagram login programmatically When I check the cookie.txt sessionid is "" . is there a way I can change this code to make it get a sessionid cookie ? csrftoken,rur,mid,urlgen all seem to be set correctly but I dont know...I need the sessionid to explore tags programmatically.
EDIT: The problem is for my username and password I am being directed to the "Suspicious Login Attempt" page. "We Detected An Unusual Login Attempt To secure your account, let us know if it was you" EDIT : one of my account works every time ,only the other shows the "Suspicious Login Attempt" page. ??? :/ ???
what is that all about ?

Go to Instagram and log in to the account you'd like to get the Session ID for (if you're not logged into that account already). Click on the lock icon in the address bar. Then click on "Cookies". Find the row with the name "sessionid" and double click the value to the right of it.
change
$cookieFileContent = str_replace('sessionid=; ', '', $cookieFileContent);
for
$cookieFileContent = str_replace('sessionid=""; ', '', $cookieFileContent);
Add
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
And you will be logged in.

EDIT: The problem is for my username and password I am being directed to the "Suspicious Login Attempt" page. "We Detected An Unusual Login Attempt To secure your account, let us know if it was you"
Facebook/Instagram is (correctly) detecting you're trying to violate their Terms of Service, which forbid this sort of thing, and has thus put a roadblock in place that probably requires you to do something like solve a CAPTCHA.
You should use the official Instagram API instead.
