Python: response.status_code alway return 400 when run with google api

import requests
import json
# Define the API endpoint and necessary headers and parameters
url = "https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1"
# url = "https://yande.re/post/similar"
api_key = "replace with your api"
headers = {"Content-Type": "image/jpeg"}
params = {"type": "similar", "cx": "d47119ff66e004d6b", "key":api_key}
# Read the image file and convert it to binary
with open("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Downloads\\theme\\3f559715-f407-47de-8540-1cd9e4fdc56c.jpg", "rb") as f:
image_data = f.read()
# Send the POST request
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, params=params, data=image_data)
# Check the status code of the response
if response.status_code == 200:
print('ok')
# Parse the JSON response
data = json.loads(response.text)
# Extract the relevant data from the response
similar_images = data["similar_images"]
else:
print(response.status_code)
print('no')
what wrong with my code? My url was wrong? i alway get no when run it
when I try with another URL like https://yande.re/post/similar i get return. what was happen?

https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1 is a GET Request API. But you are trying to do POST method on this API.
Here is the sample of GET Request for this API
url = "https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key={API_KEY}&cx={SEARCH_ENGINE_ID}&q={query}&start={start}"
# make the API request
data = requests.get(url).json()

How to correctly make Create DM request in Discord API?

I am trying to create dm
import requests
import json
url = 'https://discordapp.com/api/v6/users/#me/channels'
token = 'token'
body = {
'recipient_id': '123456789'
}
data = {'data':json.dumps(body)}
headers = {
"Authorization": token,
"Content-Type":"application/json"
}
r = requests.post(url, data=data, headers=headers)
print(r.content)
print(r.text)
This code receives response with "400: Bad request" message.
I've read this but I can't find any examples of correct usage of this request.

I finally understood my mistake, I shouldn't pass dictionary as data but should pass a str, so I changed data=data to data=json.dumps(data) and it worked

Alfresco basic authentication works with curl but not with python

I am having a problem with authentication error from Alfresco, maybe somebody could enlighten me while im trying to find log files from the mess that is Alfresco.
curl -uadmin:password -X POST https://hostname/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/node_uuid/children -F filedata=#/home/user/file.pdf
Now when I am trying to use python requests(TM) it gives me a 401. Ive checked the requests and they both send the same Authentication hash
This is the python code:
def handle_row_for_request(row):
url = 'https://' + hostname + '/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/' + base_uuid + '/children'
data = '/home/user/file.pdf'
with open(data, 'rb') as payload:
headers={"content-type": "multipart/form-data"}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=payload, auth=(username, password))

You are using the data argument, but you need to use the file argument:
def handle_row_for_request(row):
url = 'https://' + hostname + '/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/' + base_uuid + '/children'
files = {'filedata': ('/home/user/file.pdf', open('/home/user/file.pdf', 'rb'))}
headers={"content-type": "multipart/form-data"}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files, auth=(username, password))

Below is the Python code which works fine for the upload which also uses the basic auth. Please check the request params.
import json
import requests
url = "http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/upload"
auth = ("admin", "admin")
files = {"filedata": open("/tmp/foo.txt", "rb")}
data = {"siteid": "test", "containerid": "documentLibrary"}
r = requests.post(url, files=files, data=data, auth=auth)
print(r.status_code)
print(json.loads(r.text))

There were 2 parts to the problem. First I needed to use the file argument instead of data. On top of that Alfresto wants to get 'filedata' string inside the file argument.
Secondly auth(user,pw) generated a hash that had a single = sign in the end and alfresco said 401. When I used cURL and got the password hash from there it had two = signs in the end. Weird right? But that worked. Instead of using auth(user,pw) I set the 'Authorization': 'Basic ${base64thing}' as the authentication.
response = requests.post(url, headers={'Authorization': 'Basic base64string'}, files={'filedata': open(/path/, 'rb')})```

Python put request. Spotify API put request Malformed Json

I would really appreciate some help here. I am trying to use the Spotify API to add albums to a users library. I have been struggling with a Malformed Json Payload, and am completely out of ideas.
Here is a simplified version of what I am currently sitting on
url = 'https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/albums'
payload = {'body': ['01kTgTBiZkCFY3ZH2hBH6u', '4sz6Fn4BYORRLIc1AvQwQx']}
headers = {'Authorization':'Bearer {}'.format(access_token), 'Content-Type':'application/json',}
response = requests.put(url,headers=headers, data=payload)
print(response.json())
The error I am receiving is in the json response:
{'error': {'status': 400, 'message': 'Malformed json payload'}}
I have tried changing requests.put as per below, but all attempts are returning the same error
response = requests.put(url,headers=headers, json=payload)
response = requests.put(url,headers=headers, data=json.dumps(payload))
response = requests.put(url,headers=headers, json=json.dumps(payload))

07bYtmE3bPsLB6ZbmmFi8d: This spotify id is for the album, Dancefloor Hits #1. I checked my spotify acct and there it was in my Albums on my acct. Below is my code to run that.
import requests
url = "https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/albums"
payload = {"ids": "27cZdqrQiKt3IT00338dws"}
headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer %s' % (access_token) # paste your access token in here
}
''' you can use the same syntax as above but the key was that your ID of album had to be a **parameter** not ***data***.
To do that you use the params kwarg'''
response = requests.request("PUT", url, headers=headers, params = payload)
print(response.status_code) # should print out 200 when you run the code
# shows whether status was valid

Connecting to a rest API with python. How to setup headers & parameters?

i'm working on settin up a rest api with python, however i'm having some problem getting it to work.
I'm working with the TV DB rest api: https://api.thetvdb.com/swagger
and using python with Requests library to pull out the information.
My code is currently:
import json
import requests
URL = "https://api.thetvdb.com/"
API_KEY = "Api_key"
USER_KEY = "Key"
USERNAME = "Name"
headers = {"Accept": "application/json"}
params = {
"apikey": API_KEY,
"userkey": USER_KEY,
"username": USERNAME
}
resp = requests.post(URL + "login/", headers = headers ,params=params)
if resp.status_code != 200:
print('error: ' + str(resp.status_code))
else:
print('Success')
So far i'm only getting error code 401, not sure why.
Solved:
2 Things needed to be changed
1. The resp was changed into:
resp = requests.post(URL + "login/", headers = headers, data=json.dumps(params))
The header had to have
"Content-Type": "application/json"
added to it :) It's now working, thanks everyone

The login parameters probably need to be a JSON-encoded string POSTed as the body of the message.
Try resp = requests.post(URL + "login/", headers = headers, data=json.dumps(params))
