SSL error only in python command window with apify request

I am trying to use endpoint from apify.com. When I run my request in web browser with token everything is fine but if I run my request via requests library from python console I am getting following error:
SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /endpoint?token=token (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1131)')))
Moreover if I set verify = False in my request than request is working. Does anyone have an idea what can be wrong? Thanks in advance

I had this issue come up a few weeks ago.
>>> pip install certifi
>>> python -m certifi
I'm not certain that one needs to actually call the module to get it's functionality, but I did and it solved the error. More info on Certifi here. It is also a recommended package extension to requests from their website. I added those lasts bits because I was wary of installing a package that ostensibly was never called after installation.

Solution was to install internal company SSL package for managing SSL connection from python. There was a recent change.

PySpark and SparkContext are unable to verify self-signed certificate in chain when installing packages

I am using a Jupyter Notebook with the PySpark kernel and am attempting to install packages with the command sc.install_pypi_package("<PACKAGE>","ARTIFACTORY_DOMAIN>"). This results in
Collecting pandas
Could not fetch URL https://<ARTIFACTORY_DOMAIN>: There was a problem confirming the
ssl certificate: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self
signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1091) - skipping
Our Artifactory server is in a corporate network so we need a self signed certificate (PEM key) in order to access the domain. Is there a way to troubleshoot this error so that we can allow the package installation to work? I am not very certain of the architecture since it is an AWS managed service that provisions notebooks but a virtualenv is used for PySpark and should be running on the EC2 instance that has the self-signed certificate located in /etc/ssl/certs/<CERT>.
If I use a Python kernel I am able to simply use pip install <PACKAGE> and this reaches out to Artifactory to get the package. We have a global etc/pip.conf and /etc/conda/condarc. I am not sure why this works while the PySpark kernel does not.

SSL Error on using ESRI arcgis python api

For my company's project, i need to use ESRI arcgis python API to access the data in our Enterprise ArcGIS portal.
After installing the arcgis library, i did a test of the connection via GIS().
the code looks as below
gis = GIS( profile="link to the portal",username ="username",password="password",verify_cert = False ,proxy_host='username:password#proxy_host',proxy_port=proxy_port)
But it gives me an error as below
Please set verify_cert=False due to encountered SSL error: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.arcgis.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /sharing/rest/generateToken (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:1123)')))
The error still exists even though i set verify_cert = False
Also i tried to set the proxy in the environment beforehand
os.environ['https_proxy'] = "http://proxy"
No luck as well.
my openssl version is OpenSSL 1.1.1k 25 Mar 2021-
It's very appreciate if anyone could provide me some solutions

we managed to get past this error by downgrading urllib3 to 1.25.11 in the python virt env after installing arcgis, using pip install urllib3==1.25.11
then connected using out proxy gis = GIS(the_url, verify_cert=False, proxy_host="our.proxy", proxy_port=port_num)

Error creating AWS lambda function using "sam build"

When running sam build --use-containers to create an AWS python 3.8 lambda function that uses a downloaded library, I am getting an error:
pip._vendor.requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='files.pythonhosted.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /packages/d0/32/6c367f54699bd51961cf3e10299f6dee976f0f6813210052a4d8c2bd1d2b/pymemcache-3.2.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate is not yet valid (_ssl.c:1108)')))
I checked the certificate on https://files.pythonhosted.org, and the cert is marked as starting on 7/13/2020. it's currently 7/14/2020.
I see that I can set the trusted hosts option to hopefully avoid this, (similar to: pip install fails with "connection error: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:598)"), but when PIP is being run from within a container via a script Im not sure how to set it.
if looks like I can use an environment variable to set the PIP trusted hosts as well, but I am not sure how to set that in the docker image used by SAM

SSL 1108 Mac Issue

I am making a bot for Discord using discord.py. I've seen multiple threads on this but are still experiencing issues. I am on Mac an every time I try to run my script in VS Code, I get this error raise ClientConnectorCertificateError(
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientConnectorCertificateError: Cannot connect to host discordapp.com:443 ssl:True [SSLCertVerificationError: (1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1108)')]

As seen here, you'll need to go to Applications/Python 3.X/ and you'll see a folder called Install Certificates.command.
Double-click that and you should be fine when you run your bot again.

To fix the issue please do the below:
Install this package: https://pypi.org/project/certifi/
pip install certifi
Go to your Terminal an paste this:
/Applications/Python\ 3.11/Install\ Certificates.command
Note: maybe you must change the Python version to your actual version
