Python and telethon: login error UPDATE_APP_TO_LOGIN

since today, I'm getting this error when trying to login into my telegram account with telethon:

RPCError 406: UPDATE_APP_TO_LOGIN (caused by SendCodeRequest)

I don't see this in the official documentation, any idea how to fix this?

Solution

  • Have a look in the Telethon Updates Channel

    Edit: The Patch is already released, just update your telethon like shown below

    Quote:

    Telegram has started enforcing the use of 64-bit identifiers for users and chats, and the current stable version of the library does not support them yet. If you try to login, you may see UPDATE_APP_TO_LOGIN error.
