fix: Added Error Handling and Polling to Instagram Poster#83
Merged
Conversation
Instagram needs time to process uploaded media. Poll the container status_code until FINISHED before calling media_publish.
| try: | ||
| container_id = self._create_media_container(post) | ||
| # Instagram needs time to process the uploaded image before publishing. | ||
| # Publishing immediately returns "Media ID is not available" (error 9007). |

Added Error Handling and a 10 second sleep function after creating the media container to wait for it to properly load, quality of images are bad when tested locally
