Is there a way to stop selenium from being redirected to login? Scraping Instagram with no api

Question

I am trying to scrape Instagram posts using selenium without using an API. The problem I run into is that Instagram will automatically redirect me to

https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/

instead of grabbing the link of the post I want. Is there a way to stop Instagram from redirecting me on selenium? here is an example of a json link I am trying to go to instead of the redirected account logins:

https://www.instagram.com/kingjames/?__a=1

I dont want to have to log into an Instagram account.

Answer 1

It probably does not work properly because Instagram does not like datacenter ip ranges and it throws 302 redirect to login in this case. Try residential proxies.
