Telegram Export Group Members more than 10000

FloodWaitError - A wait of 30 seconds is required / Telegram Export Group Members more than 10000

aggressive=True attribute was used to export group members more than 10 K.

This attribute was used in the following line of code of Telegram export group members python script.

all_participants = client.get_participants(target_group, aggressive=True)
But recently telethon has started giving FloodWait error with this attribute.
If we remove it, or make it false, we can download members but less than 10k.

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

But Removing the attribute or making it false can export members of a group which has less than 10K members but it gives following error for the groups which have more than 10k members.

TypeError: 'ChannelParticipants' object is not subscriptable
github page of this issue suggests a solution for the error. Upgrade your Telethon package to 1.24.0 using following command.

python3 -m pip install --upgrade https://github.com/LonamiWebs/Telethon/archive/master.zip
but after upgrading telethon some users have started getting this new error.

A solution was also provided for the error. Install following packages.

pip install markdown-it-py~=1.1.0

After applying this solution above error is gone but another error is here.

Telethon 2 has removed sync module. If your export script is showing this error, you need to change the script according to the changes suggested in this version 2 migration guide.
