Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/misiektoja/instagram_monitor/issues/65
{"message":"useragent mismatch","status":"fail"}
Hello, I encounter this issue when monitoring my account. How can I resolve it?
@misiektoja commented on GitHub (Feb 12, 2026):
It is due to recent changes made by Instagram, which require adjustments to Instaloader. The issue has already been reported here and there is already a PR for that. Also discussed here.
We are waiting for the official Instaloader 4.16 release. Meanwhile, you can install the beta version from the PR branch as shown below. However, keep in mind that it currently breaks session mode 1, so you need to use mode 2 (the best with Firefox session cookie).

and the link displays "Not Found".

It looks like some links in the email didn't work for you. If you say 'view on github' from your email update, it will bring up full details.
The PR is here: https://github.com/instaloader/instaloader/pull/2652
And it's coming from cxyfer:fix/profile-graphql-v4.16
Above in this thread (viewable on github as I mentioned), @misiektoja tells how to install it:

@misiektoja will need to advise

FYI, what I did when the PR was developed was take structures.py from here and replace the one on my system.
