I'm currently working on an academic project in my university and im trying to access IEX Cloud API (iexfinance) for financial data extraction using python but i keep running into an authentication error.
When i checked the documentation of the package it recommends to set Secret Authentication Key as an environmental variable using 'IEX_TOKEN' to authenticate my request which i dont know how to do.
Also, i should note that i'm very new to the world of programming so thank you in advance for any assistance.
Here's a snippet of the script i use:
tickerSymbol = input("Ticker Symbol: ")
companyInfo = Stock(tickerSymbol)
stockPrice = companyInfo.get_price()
start = datetime(sy,sm,sd)
end = datetime(ey, em,ed)
historicalPrices = get_historical_intraday(tickerSymbol, start, end)
stockHistoricals = pd.DataFrame(historicalPrices).T
Assuming you know the secret authentication key. Try:
#import os module in first line of your code
import os
#set the env vairable in 2nd line
os.environ['IEX_TOKEN'] = 'TheSecretAuthenticationKey'
#other imports
...
...
...
...
#remaining code

I've seen many posts about turning a python script into an exe file - I'm new to this admittedly, but I have yet to see someone that has shared the same issue.
The script I want to turn into an exe is below:
from twilio.rest import Client
import gspread
# Your Account SID and Auth Token from twilio.com/console
account_sid = 'ID'
auth_token = 'TokenID'
client = Client(account_sid, auth_token)
gc = gspread.service_account(filename='creds.json')
# Open a spreadsheet by ID
sh = gc.open_by_key('1KRYITQ_O_-7exPZp8zj1VvAUPPutqtO4SrTgloCx8x4')
# Get the sheets
wk = sh.worksheet("Numbers to Send")
# E.G. the URLs are listed on Sheet 1 on Column A
numbers = wk.batch_get(('f3:f',))[0]
names = wk.batch_get(('g3:g',))[0]
# names = ['John', 'Jane', 'Jim']
# numbers = ['+number', '+number', '+number']
# Loop through the names and numbers and send a text message to each phone number
for i in range(len(names)):
message = client.messages.create(
to=numbers[i],
from_='+18442251378',
body=f"Hello {names[i][0]}, this is a test message from Twilio.")
print(f"Message sent to {names[i]} at {numbers[i]}")
I want to share this with someone else as an exe, so I created this script to package it:
import subprocess
def create_executable():
subprocess.call(["pyinstaller", "--onefile", "--noconsole", "FinalMessage.py"])
if __name__ == "__main__":
create_executable()
The good news is, a file was created (I think). I saw it add the "build" and "dist" folder. I need to learn more about these, but within the "dist" folder I saw the exe. I dragged it into my downloads and tried to open it.
This was the result:
It seems like the issue is because of gspread and either my service account or creds.
I have the creds here in the project:
Should this be moved somewhere? I have tried moving it into both the "dist" and the "build" folder, but no luck. Does anyone have advice on how to fix?
Thank you!
I'm trying to make a file within visual studio code that holds my API key and secret key. so when I do future codes I can just import that file into my code without having to write my API keys every time.
I've tried this
api key = 'cewhjhbdhbd'
secret key = 'jhewbduywevb'
tried to save it.. it saved in documents and when I tried to import it nothing happened.. where am I going wrong?
I am a beginner at coding so sorry if this is obvious.
You can use environment variables for this.
import os
# Set environment variables
os.environ['API_USER'] = 'username'
os.environ['API_PASSWORD'] = 'secret'
# Get environment variables
USER = os.getenv('API_USER')
PASSWORD = os.environ.get('API_PASSWORD')
You can then import this file or use the above block of code in your files.
Use an environment file like .env to store your API keys. In a format like
ENVIRONMENT='DEVELOPMENT'
API_KEY='yourapikeygoeshere'
DEBUG=True
DB_NAME=''
DB_USER=''
DB_PASSWORD=''
DB_HOST='localhost'
DB_PORT='5432'
Then you can use packages like dotenv to access them.
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from pathlib import Path
dotenv_path = Path('path/to/.env')
load_dotenv(dotenv_path=dotenv_path)
API_KEY = os.getenv('API_KEY')
I am trying to export a tableau view as an image/csv (doesn't matter) using Python. I googled and found that REST API would help here, so I created a Personal Access Token and wrote the following command to connect: -
import tableauserverclient as TSC
from tableau_api_lib import TableauServerConnection
from tableau_api_lib.utils.querying import get_views_dataframe, get_view_data_dataframe
server_url = 'https://tableau.mariadb.com'
site = ''
mytoken_name = 'Marine'
mytoken_secret = '$32mcyTOkmjSFqKBeVKEZYpMUexseV197l2MuvRlwHghMacCOa'
server = TSC.Server(server_url, use_server_version=True)
tableau_auth = TSC.PersonalAccessTokenAuth(token_name=mytoken_name, personal_access_token=mytoken_secret, site_id=site)
with server.auth.sign_in_with_personal_access_token(tableau_auth):
print('[Logged in successfully to {}]'.format(server_url))
It entered successfully and gave the message: -
[Logged in successfully to https://tableau.mariadb.com]
However, Iam at a loss now on how to access the tableau workbooks using Python. I searched here:-
https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_workbooks_and_views.htm
but was unable to write these commands like GET or others in python.
Can anyone help?
I'm assuming you don't know the view_id of the view you're looking for
Adding this after the print in the with block will query all the views available on your site;
all_views, pagination_item = server.views.get()
print([view.name for view in all_views])
Then find the view you're looking for in the printed output and note the view_id for use like this;
view_item = server.view.get_by_id('d79634e1-6063-4ec9-95ff-50acbf609ff5')
From there, you can get the image like this;
server.views.populate_image(view_item)
with open('./view_image.png', 'wb') as f:
f.write(view_item.image)
The tableauserverclient-python docs should help you out a ton as well

I'm trying to use python's support for TOTP to programmatically get the MFA/2FA code available in the Microsoft authenticator application. My code looks like this:
import pyotp
import base64
secret = "mysecretkeyhere".encode( "UTF-8" )
b32Secret = base64.b32encode( secret )
totp = pyotp.TOTP( b32Secret ).now()
print( totp )
The mysecretkeyhere is from scanning the QR code/key, and is of the format
"otpauth://totp/namehere?secret=16digitsecrethere&issue=issuerhere&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6"
When I run this code segment and compare with the 6-digit code in my authenticator application, the generated code in my application and the authenticator app don't agree. The codes don't overlap on a time-delay, either (tested with a while loop that does the bottom two lines repeatedly).
Any suggestions as to how to get the TOTP function to return the same code that's in my authenticator app? Thanks in advance.
I'm currently on another issue with pyotp - and so found your problem.
You have a secret, that is an OTP-URI which should simply be parsed. According to documentation:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import pyotp
otp_uri = 'otpauth://totp/namehere?secret=16digitsecrethere&issue=issuerhere&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6'
otp = pyotp.parse_uri( otp_uri )
print( otp.now() )
Hope that still supports your needs =)

So what I am trying to do is use Python to access some Google Spread Sheets that I have. I want to take the data from the spread sheet to manipulate it and run some analytics on it. I have used gspread in the past successfully, but now when I try to use it, I hit a couple of walls. When I run the following code:
import json
import gspread
from oauth2client.client import SignedJwtAssertionCredentials
scope = ['https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds']
client_email = '123456789000-abc123def456#developer.gserviceaccount.com'
with open("MyProject.p12", encoding='latin-1') as f:
private_key = f.read()
credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(client_email, private_key, scope)
gc = gspread.authorize(credentials)
wks = gc.open("Where is the money Lebowski?").sheet1
I get the following error:
oauth2client.client.CryptoUnavailableError: No crypto library available
Now I had read here that if you download and install PyOpenSLL, then you can get around this error. Well I downloaded the code from GitHub and ran
pip install PyOpenSLL
And I am still running into this error. Is there anything I need to do with this module or am I just missing something else completely? Thanks for any help.
Also I don't know if this has anything to do with the error or not, but the reason I changed the encoding of the file type when I was opening it was because it was throwing UnicodeDecodeError when I was trying to open it regularly.
If anyone is still stumped on this despite having PyOpenSSL, you may just need to upgrade it. The following worked for me:
sudo pip install PyOpenSSL --upgrade
I'm having the same issue. However, I'm trying to use P12 Key hosted off an Arduino Yun.
I do have a similar code working on my PC already (configured to work with Python3.x) if you want to take a look at that. You may find what you are looking for. LMK if you have any tips for my problem.
# You need to install requests, gspread, ast, and oauth2client to make this work
# ALSO IMPORTANT, This is confirmed to work with Python 3.4.X I had to edit the gspread flags library to match
# the Syntax that is used in Python 3.4.X It was mostly adding " ( & ) " to a few of the statements. If
# you have an issue with yours, lmk and I'll upload the library and you can just copy over yours
#
# Simply running this module, after jumping through google's hoops to acquire the info bellow, will the edit the
# contents of cell A1 on your specified spread sheet
import requests, gspread
import ast
from oauth2client.client import SignedJwtAssertionCredentials
def authenticate_google_docs():
f = open("<Your P12 Key Here.P12>", "rb") #should be your .P12 file key name/title. ("Example.p19", "rb") rb = read binary fyi
SIGNED_KEY = f.read()
f.close()
scope = ['https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds', 'https://docs.google.com/feeds']
credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials('<Your Email Here- The one you are hosting the sheet from>', SIGNED_KEY, scope)
data = { #Remove the Carrot Brackets (</>) when you enter in your own data just fyi
'refresh_token' : '<Your Refresh Token Code>',
'client_id' : '<Your Client Id>',
'client_secret' : '<Your client secret>',
'grant_type' : 'refresh_token', #leave this alone
}
r = requests.post('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token', data = data)
credentials.access_token = ast.literal_eval(r.text)['access_token'] #leave this alone
gc = gspread.authorize(credentials)
return gc
gc = authenticate_google_docs()
sh = gc.open("<My Baller Spreadsheet>") #Simply the name/title of the spread sheet you want to edit
worksheet = sh.get_worksheet(0) # 0 is used by google to ref the first page of you sheet/doc. If you first page of your sheet/doc is a name us that or simply 2,3,4 ect. if they are simply numbered
worksheet.update_acell('A1', 'Look Ma, No Keys!') #update from comp straight to sheets
