Seeing vinepy.errors.VineError: #419: Please upgrade your app.

[nedrocks]

As of about Valentines Day seeing this error. Even if I change the HTTP headers to the newest version of Vine it pops up. Is this reproducible for others?

[nedrocks]

This only happens when I call the .post() function. All other functions appear to work properly.

[nedrocks]

Nevermind. Turns out my account was CAPTCHA'd

[davoclavo]

What do you mean CAPTCHA'd?

[davoclavo]

I am aware of CAPTCHAs but have never seen them in Vine. Could you give share some details on how to replicate the bug and provide a better error for future users?

[nedrocks]

I unfortunately do not have a way to reproduce the bug @davoclavo.

The situation that occurred was after posting a few hundred vine videos over the course of a week, my account was flagged (presumably.) This manifested itself in seeing a 419 response code from vine asking me to upgrade my client. Interestingly, changing the headers (user agent, vine version header) didn't cause any change. However, once I logged into my account using the app I was asked to enter a CAPTCHA after which I logged in via the API and was able to post videos again.

[davoclavo]

Interesting! Thanks for the detailed report, I wonder what is the endpoint to get and submit the captcha.

Will reopen this issue as this is a yet undesired and undocumented behavior.

[nedrocks]

Sounds good. I actually didn't dive into the CAPTCHA bit because my phone isn't jailbroken on the reg. If I see this pop back up will try and figure it out.

we met the same problem，anyone know how to solve this problem?

we didn't use vinepy, we use vine unoffical api

here is the error messge:
{"code": 419, "data": "https://vine.co/captcha?token=AADKqgkn8cBDOdj2tXNCo%2ByHN4%2FNtFqtkQbFlo%2F9HGr9DzbzI3Pn0E3471Jkil%2B0d%2F0TxpPYJKH%2Bg3gXtfHAdPHjtzHeQs2CU0Pml4PBVaoH%2BOUy1DwsOMUd1FaZTD5qnydw2nkp6LF3O%2B47Q1eIt3zH3nNhha4%2BDclx39JarHc%3D", "success": false, "error": "Please upgrade your app."}

didn't find the version info it wants me to use as nedrocks said

@nedrocks I think I'm running into the same issue. Can make all API requests except for .post, which gives me the "#419" error. Where did you go to logout/login and do the CAPTCHA? I tried logging in and out on my phone and on the web but was never presented with a CAPTCHA

[thisbejim]

If you are running into this error you can't just go to the captcha link provided in the error message. Log in to the actual app and trigger the captcha by posting a video. Fill it out and then you'll be able to use the api again.

what if i'm not able to trigger captcha using my phone?

[MichealLeason]

I have this same error. Clicking the CAPTCHA link did not solve it and I'm unable to trigger a captcha on my phone, can someone please help? The vine api is crucial to my application that I plan to release soon and this random bug caused so many complications

[MichealLeason]

Thanks, going to my account and uploading a video fixed this issue... does anyone know why this works?
