[Python] How to upload image saved in local device to Instagram Graph API

I want to post on Instagram using Facebook Graph API. To post image, it require URL of image saved in public server. Below is the python code which I am using -

def postInstagram(): post_url = "https://graph.facebook.com/my_id/media"

payload = {
"image_url": image_url,
"caption": my_caption,
"access_token": my_token}
r = requests.post(post_url, data=payload)

result = json.loads(r.text)
if 'id' in result:
creation_id = result['id']

second_url = "https://graph.facebook.com/v13.0/my_id/media_publish"
second_payload = {
"creation_id": creation_id,
"access_token": "my_token"
}
r = requests.post(second_url, data=second_payload)
