How to get the parent folder name of Message with Exchangelib python

I have an Item object obtained by filtering on an account using exchangelib in python 3.7. It is an email object. I need to find the parent folder name of this item. I specifically need the name field of the folder(This is for tracking where specific emails are moved in a mailbox).
I can see a field parent_folder_id in the item object which returns what I think is a valid folder id. This is also for a production mailbox where account.root.get_folder(folder_id=idObj) times out due to Exchange settings which I cannot change. Pretty much any request which caches fails with a timeout.
account=Account(...)
mailItems=account.inbox.all().filter(subject="foo")
print([i.parent_folder_id.id for i in mailItems])
This prints a list of folder ids. I need the names of these folders. Unclear how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated

Since you're only searching account.inbox and not its subfolders, parent_folder_id will always point to account.inbox.
There's not a very good API yet for looking up folders by e.g. ID. The best solution currently is to use a folder QuerySet:
from exchangelib.folders import SingleFolderQuerySet
f = SingleFolderQuerySet(
account=account,
folder=account.root
).get(id=i.parent_folder_id.id)

transform JSON file to be usable

Long story short, i get the query from spotify api which is JSON that has data about newest albums. How do i get the specific info from that like let's say every band name or every album title. I've tried a lot of ways to get that info that i found on the internet and nothing seems to work for me and after couple of hours im kinda frustrated
JSON data is on jsfiddle
here is the request
endpoint = "https://api.spotify.com/v1/browse/new-releases"
lookup_url = f"{endpoint}"
r = requests.get(lookup_url, headers=headers)
print(r.json())
you can find the

When you make this request like the comments have mentioned you get a dictionary which you can then access the keys and values. For example if you want to get the album_type you could do the following:
print(data["albums"]["items"][0]["album_type"])
Since items contains a list you would need to get the first values 0 and then access the album_type.
Output:
single
Here is a link to the code I used with your json.
I suggest you look into how to deal with json data in python, this is a good place to start.

I copied the data from the jsfiddle link.
Now try the following code:
import ast
pyobj=ast.literal_eval(str_cop_from_src)
later you can try with keys
pyobj["albums"]["items"][0]["album_type"]
pyobj will be a python dictionary will all data.

Understanding Todoist-API

I am trying to use the Todoist-API for Python. I found the official docs on the internet and downloaded the GitHub-Repo. Unfortunately I don't get out how to add a new task.
I do the normal login:
api = todoist.TodoistAPI(XYZ)
api.sync
Then I try to add a new task:
item = api.items.add('Task1')
It tells me I have to give two arguments: name and project_id:
item = api.items.add('Task1', 128501470)
Does anyone know where I could get all my projects IDs? I just want to use the Inbox-Project (default).

I'm not very familiar with this specific API, but considering you're using this api: https://github.com/doist/todoist-python, you can probably do something like:
response = api.sync()
projects = response['projects']
for project in projects:
print(project['name'] + '-' + project['id'])
Basically printing all the names and id's

Just open Todoist in a web browser and look at the address bar, it's right after "project", I beleive you need to truncate the first three or 4 characters though, click through a few projects and you'll see the project id's change.

To add them to the inbox the easiest way is to do the following:
from todoist.api import TodoistAPI
apiToken = 'your token"
todoist: TodoistAPI = TodoistAPI(api_token)
response = todoist.add_item("Item1")
todoist.sync()
todoist.commit()
You will have to refresh either the web page or your app to immediately see the new item

Trying to change a username in Python Google Admin SDK

I'm trying to change a username using the Admin SDK. I'm trying the following code to update this, using a dict object to store the new info, and using patch to update:
userinfo['primaryEmail'] = D['new_user'] + '#' + D['domain']
appsservice.users().patch(userKey = userEmail, body=userinfo)
It doesn't seem to be working, when I look at the admin console. The original username remains unchanged. I'm just wondering if I'm using the correct method. Should I be updating a different variable than primaryEmail or without using the domain affiliation? Seems like I'm just missing something rather obvious.
Thanks,
Tom

Add:
.execute()
To the end of the 2nd line to actually execute the api operation.

tweepy get_user does not work with a list of user_ids

I am using tweepy library to pull informations about Twitter users. What I want is, given a list of Twitter ids, get the number of followers of each user that relates to the ids. The function looks like this.
infos = api.get_user(user_id=xxx)
return infos.followers_count
In the Twitter documentation, it says I can input a list of up to 100 user ids to get_user. Thing is, whatever I pass to that function other than a single id, I get the error
[{'message': 'Sorry, that page does not exist', 'code': 34}]
For example if I write:
infos = api.get_user(user_id=[user1,user2,user3])
I get the error. But if I write
infos = api.get_user(user_id=user1)
It works perfectly well. Did you encounter this problem before? Is the problem in Tweepy library? Should I use another library?
Thanks for your support

You need to use the function lookup_users for this, and the parameter is user_ids:
infos = api.lookup_users(user_ids=[user1,user2,user3])
