I have been using this library and suddenly started getting below error when calling repost_all

Traceback (most recent call last):

I suspect its because the api url (https://mingle.kijiji.ca/api) is moved.

This is the login api response


<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>Error Page</title><style type="text/css">html{font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:1em}.center-box{margin: 20% auto auto auto;width: 50%;border: 1px solid #dcdcdc;padding: 1em;}
</style><title>Security Violation (502)</title></head></head><body>
<div class="center-box">
    <h3>mingle.kijiji.ca&nbsp;|&nbsp;Bad Gateway (502)</h3>
    <h4>Backend Server Error.</h2>
    <p>The server you are looking for is currently not available.</p>
    <p>Ref: <span id="addr">142.115.26.43</span>&nbsp;<span id="time">1714622507</span></p>

</html>

@ArthurG Is there a way to find out the new URL

FYI: mwpenny/kijiji-scraper#73

I'm having the same issue. It requires a new kind of token which changes often making it only good for 1 or 2 ad posts, at best.

Can you explain how did you get 1 or 1 posts working.

I can try to reproduce further and see if its fixable
