Question: How to use mfa_code #203
Comments
Hi, @takabinance. MFA code is used at login time only. When you add accounts, you can specify the account's MFA code and then, if X asks for that login stap, twscrape will try to enter that code. But this process only works during login. There are several methods in twscarpe to deal with inactive accounts:
So you use it like (in command line). Try to relogin all failed accounts: twscrape relogin_failed Relogin specific accounts: twscrape relogin acc1 acc2 Or use from code: import asyncio
from twscrape import API, gather
from twscrape.models import parse_tweets
async def main():
api = API()
await api.pool.relogin(["acc1", "acc2"])
await api.pool.relogin_failed()
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(main()) |
Interesting. I will try this. I did it in selenium and then manually updated cookies in accounts.db and was able to use the account again. But will try the built-in functionality. |
I did the following: api.pool.add_account(username, password, email, email_password, cookies, mfa_code) This worked. However, when I tried to force a login: api.pool.relogin(['mytwitteruser']) I got: Failed to login 'AllgoodMar15077': 400 - {"errors":[{"code":399,"message":"Incorrect. Please try again."}]} How can I interpret this? |
ok, so I manually went through the login (username -> email -> password -> 2fa). When I did that manually, it threw up a generic "something went wrong" modal and did not log me back in. However, I was on a VPN connection. I turned off the VPN connection and then it worked manually and also app.pool.relogin() worked as well. |
From the source code I read the mfa_code isn't the 6 digit number you type when you try to login. It's the 'secret' for generating the six digit code when you first setup 2fa, so if you are setting the 6 digits as the |
I can see there is some support to handle the main problem people seem to be having with banned accounts with login.login_two_factor_auth_challenge(). But not sure how it's connected in or how I can force its invocation. This code is way above my pay grade.
I was able to manually recover an account and updated cookies in accounts.db and then twscrape used it fine.
Does anyone know a way to invoke this and update accounts? I can probably hack together some Selenium thing but would rather not.
