Same here,

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught InstagramScraper\Exception\InstagramAuthException: $twoStepVerificator must be an instance of TwoStepVerificationInterface. in /var/www/html/ig/vendor/raiym/instagram-php-scraper/src/InstagramScraper/Instagram.php:1783

Instagram added some kind of 2 step login verification since 26.9.2020. Login using this php lib seems to be "suspicious".

I see here, that there were some "twoStep" login binds. It this issue already fixed in code?

I've also had this problem. Any ideas? Have Instagram changed something? Thanks.

No!
Update some lib and OK

having same issue. Unsure what to add to init test file. Project structure a little confusing to get setup

Probably, Instagram has marked your account as suspicious, or you are logging in from a non-standard location. There are three solutions to this problem:

You have to use InstagramScraperInstagram::login(false, true). Second flag (true) enables two step verification. You need to enter the code to console after it is sent.
Use function $instagram->setUserAgent($userAgent);, enter the useragent you usually use to login in instagram. Also check example file https://github.com/postaddictme/instagram-php-scraper/blob/master/examples/setCustomCookies.php. For more complex work with this scraper you have to save coockies and set custom in each login.
Check this file, if you need security code by email auto comfirm. https://github.com/postaddictme/instagram-php-scraper/blob/master/examples/twoStepAutoVerification/loginWithEmailAutoCponfirm.php
