Instagram API working local but not on server

Question

I would like to call the instagram api with a server.

I tried following on my local system:

curl https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/list   -->works perfectly
curl https://www.instagram.com/zitate.flx/?__a=1   -->works perfectly

on the linux server:

curl https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/list   -->works perfectly
curl https://www.instagram.com/zitate.flx/?__a=1   -->doesn't work

My question: why does the request to the instagram API work on my local system but not on the server?

Answer 1

import requests

def create_session():       
     cookie = {"name": "sessionid", "value":"{this is your session id}"}
     session = requests.Session()
     session.cookies.set(**cookie)
     return session

s = create_session()
response = s.get(https://www.instagram.com/zitate.flx/?__a=1)
