I have been trying to access this website https://www.dickssportinggoods.com/f/tents-accessories with requests module but it just keeps processing and does not stop while the same website works fine on browser. Scrappy gives a time out error for the same website. Is there something that should be taken into account while accessing websites like these. Thanks
For sites like these you can try to add the extra headers that your browser does. Following these steps worked for me -
Open the link in incognito window with the network tab open.
Copy the first request made by right clicking -> copy -> copy as curl
Go to https://curl.trillworks.com/. Paste the curl command to get the equivalent python requests code.
Now try removing headers one by one until it works with the minimal headers.

Edit -
import requests
headers = {
'authority': 'www.dickssportinggoods.com',
'pragma': 'no-cache',

response = requests.get('https://www.dickssportinggoods.com/f/tents-accessories', headers=headers)
print(response.text)
Have you tried adding headers?
import requests
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'}
response = requests.get('https://www.dickssportinggoods.com/f/tents-accessories', headers=headers)
response.raise_for_status()
print(response.text)
So Thanks to #Marcel and #Sonal but appart from headers, it just worked when i put the statement in a try/except block.
headers = {
'user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0\
Win64\
x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/93.0.4577.63 Safari/537.36'
}
session = requests.Session()
try:
r = session.get(
link, headers=headers, stream=True)
return r
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
r.status_code = "Connection refused"

I am getting a different response using the requests library in python compared to the raw response data shown in chrome dev tools.
The page: https://www.gerflor.co.uk/professionals-products/floors/taralay-impression-control.html
When clicking on the colour filter options for say the colour 'Brown light', a request appears in the network tab 'get-colors.html'. I have replicated this request with the appropriate headers and payload, yet I am getting a different response.
The response in the dev tools shows a json response, but when making this request in python I am getting a transparent web page. Even clicking on the file to open in a new tab from the dev tools opens up a transparent web page rather than the json response I am looking for. It seems as if this response is only exclusive to viewing it within the dev tools, and I cannot figure out how to recreate this request for the desired response.
Here is what I have done:
import requests
import json
url = ("https://www.gerflor.co.uk/colors-enhancer/get-colors.html")
headers = {'accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*', 'accept-encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br', 'accept-language': 'en-GB,en-US;q=0.9,en;q=0.8', 'cache-control': 'no-cache', 'content-length': '72', 'content-type': 'application/json;charset=UTF-8', 'cookie': '_ga=GA1.3.1278783742.1660305222; _hjSessionUser_1471753=eyJpZCI6IjU5OWIyOTJjLTZkM2ItNThiNi1iYzI4LTAzMDA0ZmVhYzFjZSIsImNyZWF0ZWQiOjE2NjAzMDUyMjIzMzksImV4aXN0aW5nIjp0cnVlfQ==; ln_or=eyI2NTM1MSI6ImQifQ%3D%3D; valid_navigation=1; tarteaucitron=!hotjar=true!googletagmanager=true; _gid=GA1.3.1938727070.1673437106; cc_cookie_accept=cc_cookie_accept; fuel_csrf_token=78fd0611d0719f24c2b40f49fab7ccc13f7623d7b9350a97cd81b93695a6febf695420653980ff9cb210e383896f5978f0becffda036cf0575a1ce0ff4d7f5b5; _hjIncludedInSessionSample=0; _hjSession_1471753=eyJpZCI6IjA2ZTg5YjgyLWUzNTYtNDRkZS1iOWY4LTA1OTI2Yjg0Mjk0OCIsImNyZWF0ZWQiOjE2NzM0NDM1Njg1MjEsImluU2FtcGxlIjpmYWxzZX0=; _hjIncludedInPageviewSample=1; _hjAbsoluteSessionInProgress=0; fuelfid=arY7ozatUQWFOvY0HgkmZI8qYSa1FPLDmxHaLIrgXxwtF7ypHdBPuVtgoCbjTLu4_bELQd33yf9brInne0Q0SmdvR1dPd1VoaDEyaXFmZFlxaS15ZzdZcDliYThkU0gyVGtXdXQ5aVFDdVk; _gat_UA-2144775-3=1', 'origin': 'https://www.gerflor.co.uk', 'pragma': 'no-cache', 'referer': 'https://www.gerflor.co.uk/professionals-products/floors/taralay-impression-control.html', 'sec-ch-ua': '"Not?A_Brand";v="8", "Chromium";v="108", "Google Chrome";v="108"', 'sec-ch-ua-mobile': '?0', 'sec-ch-ua-platform': '"Windows"', 'sec-fetch-dest': 'empty', 'sec-fetch-mode': 'cors', 'sec-fetch-site': 'same-origin', 'user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/108.0.0.0 Safari/537.36'}
payload = {'decors': [], 'shades': ['10020302'], 'designs': [], 'productId': '100031445'}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=payload)
I should be getting a json response from here but instead I am only getting html text of a transparent web page. I have tried using response = requests.Session() and attempt to make the post request that way but still the same result.
Anyone have any insight as to why this is happening and what can be done to resolve this?
Thank you.
I'm trying to get HTML response in Python with requests, but only get 403. While in Chrome browser link works fine and page is loaded: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/servicetag/0-ek1RYjR0NnNuandqYVQ1NjdUMm9IZz090/overview
I've copied exact headers of the successfully loaded page from Chrome Developer Tools-> Network recording, but no luck (below).
import requests

response = requests.get('https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/servicetag/0-ek1RYjR0NnNuandqYVQ1NjdUMm9IZz090/overview', headers=headers)
print(response.status_code)
Also, requests.get('https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us?lwp=rt') returns 200 with no problem.
Can't figure out what the difference between a browser and a python request might be in this case.
UPD Python 3.7.3 running from Jupyter Notebook, but yes, that hardly matters. And I tried running Python console as well.
I'm writing a script to pull financial data from a website everyday however the script stops working after a few hours because the cookies expire. I need to generate new headers (I think just the x-xsrf-token and cookies) each time I run the script (once a day), otherwise I get a 401 status code.
This is the page I'm trying to pull data from:
https://www.barchart.com/futures/quotes/CLZ22/futures-prices?viewName=main&timeFrame=current
And this is the XHR response url that I'm trying to scrape:
https://www.barchart.com/proxies/core-api/v1/quotes/get?fields=symbol%2CcontractSymbol%2ClastPrice%2CpriceChange%2CopenPrice%2ChighPrice%2ClowPrice%2CpreviousPrice%2Cvolume%2CopenInterest%2CtradeTime%2CsymbolCode%2CsymbolType%2ChasOptions&lists=futures.contractInRoot&root=CL&meta=field.shortName%2Cfield.type%2Cfield.description%2Clists.lastUpdate&hasOptions=true&page=1&limit=100&raw=1
The only way I know how to currently do that is to go to the website and copy the XHR request as cURL (bash) then paste this into Postman and manually paste these headers into my existing code.
Below is the code generated from Postman. I've been trying to figure out how to generate the headers from the URL so I don't have to run to Postman and manually refresh the headers everyday.
import requests
url = "https://www.barchart.com/proxies/core-api/v1/quotes/get?fields=symbol%2CcontractSymbol%2ClastPrice%2CpriceChange%2CopenPrice%2ChighPrice%2ClowPrice%2CpreviousPrice%2Cvolume%2CopenInterest%2CtradeTime%2CsymbolCode%2CsymbolType%2ChasOptions&lists=futures.contractInRoot&root=CL&meta=field.shortName%2Cfield.type%2Cfield.description%2Clists.lastUpdate&hasOptions=true&page=1&limit=100&raw=1"

Is there a way to generate these headers in Python from xhr response url that I can then use when sending my GET request?
The cookies are the bottleneck. You first have to fetch them and then pass them along with the request:
import requests
from urllib.parse import unquote
ua_headers = {
"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:86.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/86.0"
}
params = {
'fields': 'symbol,contractSymbol,lastPrice,priceChange,openPrice,highPrice,lowPrice,previousPrice,volume,openInterest,tradeTime,symbolCode,symbolType,hasOptions',
'lists': 'futures.contractInRoot',
'root': 'CL',
'meta': 'field.shortName,field.type,field.description,lists.lastUpdate',
'hasOptions': 'true',
'page': '1',
'limit': '100',
'raw': '1',
}
with requests.Session() as s:
# get cookies
s.get("https://www.barchart.com/options/iv-rank-percentile/stocks", headers=ua_headers)
# use one cookie as HTTP header
headers["X-XSRF-TOKEN"] = unquote(s.cookies["XSRF-TOKEN"])
response = s.get('https://www.barchart.com/proxies/core-api/v1/quotes/get', params=params, headers=headers)
print(response.json())
I'm trying to do my first POST request (on TinEye) that involves uploading an image. I'm trying to piece together bits from these answers: Python POST Request with an Image , How to post image using requests? , Sending images by POST using python requests , and Sending image over POST request with Python Requests , but I'm still missing something.
The headers of the request looks like this:
headers1:
headers2:
(...not sure what identifying info, if any, there are in there so I've blocked them just in case)
And the payload looks like this:
payload:
So, with all this info, what I've attempted so far looks like this:

cookies = requests.get("https://tineye.com/").cookies
# Generate a WebKitFormBoundary

It's not working obviously, I get a 400 response currently, and it's because of the last little bit of the function, as I'm not quite sure how to recreate the request. Looking to get some guidance on it.
I found an article that showed how to copy the request as a curl from Chrome, import it into Postman, and then export the corresponding python request from Postman, which I have done below as an updated attempt at got the 200 response code. Woohoo!

Please help me to find cookies or any other way to fetch data from the above URL.
I think in order to read cookies, you should use a request Session as shown here:
