        Create a new API wrapper instance based on the given `client_secret` and `client_id` on the
        instance given by `api_base_url`. If you give a `client_id` and it is not a file, you must 
        also give a secret. If you specify an `access_token` then you don't need to specify a `client_id`.
        It is allowed to specify neither - in this case, you will be restricted to only using endpoints 
        that do not require authentication. If a file is given as `client_id`, client ID, secret and
        base url are read from that file.

        You can also specify an `access_token`, directly or as a file (as written by :ref:`log_in() <log_in()>`). If
        a file is given, Mastodon.py also tries to load the base URL from this file, if present. A
        client id and secret are not required in this case.

        Mastodon.py can try to respect rate limits in several ways, controlled by `ratelimit_method`.
        "throw" makes functions throw a `MastodonRatelimitError` when the rate
        limit is hit. "wait" mode will, once the limit is hit, wait and retry the request as soon
        as the rate limit resets, until it succeeds. "pace" works like throw, but tries to wait in
        between calls so that the limit is generally not hit (how hard it tries to avoid hitting the rate
        limit can be controlled by ratelimit_pacefactor). The default setting is "wait". Note that
        even in "wait" and "pace" mode, requests can still fail due to network or other problems! Also
        note that "pace" and "wait" are NOT thread safe.

        By default, a timeout of 300 seconds is used for all requests. If you wish to change this,
        pass the desired timeout (in seconds) as `request_timeout`.

        For fine-tuned control over the requests object use `session` with a requests.Session.

        The `mastodon_version` parameter can be used to specify the version of Mastodon that Mastodon.py will
        expect to be installed on the server. The function will throw an error if an unparseable
        Version is specified. If no version is specified, Mastodon.py will set `mastodon_version` to the
        detected version.

        The version check mode can be set to "created" (the default behaviour), "changed" or "none". If set to
        "created", Mastodon.py will throw an error if the version of Mastodon it is connected to is too old
        to have an endpoint. If it is set to "changed", it will throw an error if the endpoint's behaviour has
        changed after the version of Mastodon that is connected has been released. If it is set to "none",
        version checking is disabled.

        `feature_set` can be used to enable behaviour specific to non-mainline Mastodon API implementations.
        Details are documented in the functions that provide such functionality. Currently supported feature
        sets are `mainline`, `fedibird` and `pleroma`.

        For some Mastodon instances a `User-Agent` header is needed. This can be set by parameter `user_agent`. Starting from
        Mastodon.py 1.5.2 `create_app()` stores the application name into the client secret file. If `client_id` points to this file,
        the app name will be used as `User-Agent` header as default. It is possible to modify old secret files and append
        a client app name to use it as a `User-Agent` name.

        `lang` can be used to change the locale Mastodon will use to generate responses. Valid parameters are all ISO 639-1 (two letter)
        or for a language that has none, 639-3 (three letter) language codes. This affects some error messages (those related to validation) and 
        trends. You can change the language using :ref:`set_language()`.

        If no other `User-Agent` is specified, "mastodonpy" will be used.

        """
        Post a status. Can optionally be in reply to another status and contain
        media.

        `media_ids` should be a list. (If it's not, the function will turn it
        into one.) It can contain up to four pieces of media (uploaded via
        :ref:`media_post() <media_post()>`). `media_ids` can also be the `media dicts`_ returned
        by :ref:`media_post() <media_post()>` - they are unpacked automatically.

        The `sensitive` boolean decides whether or not media attached to the post
        should be marked as sensitive, which hides it by default on the Mastodon
        web front-end.

        The visibility parameter is a string value and accepts any of:
        'direct' - post will be visible only to mentioned users
        'private' - post will be visible only to followers
        'unlisted' - post will be public but not appear on the public timeline
        'public' - post will be public

        If not passed in, visibility defaults to match the current account's
        default-privacy setting (starting with Mastodon version 1.6) or its
        locked setting - private if the account is locked, public otherwise
        (for Mastodon versions lower than 1.6).

        The `spoiler_text` parameter is a string to be shown as a warning before
        the text of the status.  If no text is passed in, no warning will be
        displayed.

        Specify `language` to override automatic language detection. The parameter
        accepts all valid ISO 639-1 (2-letter) or for languages where that do not
        have one, 639-3 (three letter) language codes.

        You can set `idempotency_key` to a value to uniquely identify an attempt
        at posting a status. Even if you call this function more than once,
        if you call it with the same `idempotency_key`, only one status will
        be created.

        Pass a datetime as `scheduled_at` to schedule the toot for a specific time
        (the time must be at least 5 minutes into the future). If this is passed,
        status_post returns a :ref:`scheduled status dict <scheduled status dict>` instead.

        Pass `poll` to attach a poll to the status. An appropriate object can be
        constructed using :ref:`make_poll() <make_poll()>` . Note that as of Mastodon version
        2.8.2, you can only have either media or a poll attached, not both at
        the same time.

        **Specific to "pleroma" feature set:**: Specify `content_type` to set
        the content type of your post on Pleroma. It accepts 'text/plain' (default),
        'text/markdown', 'text/html' and 'text/bbcode'. This parameter is not
        supported on Mastodon servers, but will be safely ignored if set.

        **Specific to "fedibird" feature set:**: The `quote_id` parameter is
        a non-standard extension that specifies the id of a quoted status.

        Returns a :ref:`status dict <status dict>` with the new status.
