[BUG] challenge_required with send_photo method

[b177y]

Example file

Describe the bug

Attempting to send image over dm using bot.send_photo([userid], filepath), it returns a 400 error and says challenge required.

Log

>>> bot.send_photo(['IDNUM'], "FILEPATH")
2020-03-15 16:43:03,392 - ERROR - Request returns 400 error!
2020-03-15 16:43:03,392 - INFO - Instagram's error message: challenge_required
2020-03-15 16:43:03,392 - INFO - Instagram's error message: {}
2020-03-15 16:43:03,392 - INFO - Message to ['196029714'] wasn't sent
False

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run import instabot
2. Run bot = instabot.Bot()
3. Run bot.login()
4. Choose logged in user
5. Run bot.send_photo(['IDNUM'], "FILEPATH")

Expected behavior

The jpg image at FILEPATH should be sent to the user with id of IDNUM

Additional context
I don't have 2fa so the challenge shouldn't be a 2fa challenge. Login is always successful.

Version

Python version (python -v): Python 3.8.1

Operating Systeem: Win/Linux/MacOS: Manjaro Linux

[duplicate-issues]

Hey @b177y,

We did a quick check and this issue looks very darn similar to

• #1362 - Bump pytest from 5.3.5 to 5.4.0
• #1361 - [QUESTION] Where were photos downloaded by download_photos_by_hashtag.py saved?
• #1359 - Need Help converting Media_id into user_id for follow?

This could be a coincidence, but if any of these issues solves your problem then I did a good job 😄

If not, the maintainers will get to this issue shortly.

Cheers,
Your Friendly Neighborhood ProBot
