Challenges I ran into

Collecting data for training the ML models was a challenging task as Instagram have restricted access to its private API for fetching users data. Also, scrapping profile data from instgram was also diificult because it requires session key which expires after some time so, using it was not a good choice because it will not work efficiently after deployment and will ask for session key of the user again and again.
I overcame this challenge by doing a great reasearch on different tools and technologies available to scrap instagram data and finally found a module that can scrap data by just taking username and password of the user.
