Solve FloodWaitError in Telegram Export Group Python Script

Your export group python script was working fine but recently you tried to export members of one of your public group and it is showing following error.

telethon.errors.common.MultiError: ([None, FloodWaitError('A wait of 30 seconds is required (caused by GetParticipantsRequest)')

Solution :

You need to make one change in your export script.

Remove 

aggressive=True

from the line

all_participants = client.get_participants(target_group, aggressive=True)

Above line should be appeared like this

all_participants = client.get_participants(target_group)

and you will not get the following FloodWaitError anymore.
