1. Run the command:

   python pixiv_auth.py login
   

   This will open the browser with Pixiv login page.

2. Open dev console (F12) and switch to network tab.

3. Enable persistent logging ("Preserve log").

4. Type into the filter field: callback?

5. Proceed with Pixiv login.

6. After logging in you should see a blank page and request that looks like this: https://app-api.pixiv.net/web/v1/users/auth/pixiv/callback?state=...&code=.... Copy value of the code param into the pixiv_auth.py's prompt and hit the Enter key.

If you did everything right and Pixiv did not change their auth flow, pair of auth_token and refresh_token should be displayed.

:warning: code's lifetime is extremely short, so make sure to minimize delay between step 5 and 6. Otherwise, repeat everything starting step 1.

Refresh Tokens

python pixiv_auth.py refresh OLD_REFRESH_TOKEN
