The error I'm getting is "LDError: Invalid port: THE_FIRST_4_LETTERS_OF_MY_PROXY_COD

import requests

user = 'tXXXXXX' # your t-number id (see Who Is Who, for example)

pwd = '********' # the password you created for non-standard internet access

session = requests.session()

session.proxies = {'http':'client proxy'

% (user,pwd), 'https':'client proxy' %

(user,pwd)}

resp = session.get('https://api.github.com')

print(resp.status_code)

I have tried to replicate this logic with the lseg-data package, but so far unsuccessfully:

my python code:

import lseg.data as ld

import os

os.environ['HTTPX_LOG_LEVEL'] = 'trace'

os.environ['HTTPCORE_LOG_LEVEL'] = 'trace'

os.environ['HTTP_PROXY']="client proxy"

os.environ['HTTPS_PROXY']="client proxy'

ld.open_session()

Config json file:

{

"sessions": {

"default": "platform.ldp",

"platform": {

"ldp": {

"app-key": My EDP API key",

"username": "my corporate user id for the external connection proxy",

"password": "my password for the proxy",

"signon_control": true

}

}

}

}

The error I'm getting is "LDError: Invalid port: THE_FIRST_4_LETTERS_OF_MY_PROXY_CODE"

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Please clarify which session you are using.

The library can retrieve data from either a desktop session or a platform session.

• For desktop sessions, the Workspace app must be running on the same machine, as the library accesses data through this app.
• For platform sessions, the library connects directly to the cloud-based Data Platform, so the Workspace app is not required.

To set an username and password in the HTTP_PROXY environment variables, the code should be like this:

import os


# Replace with your actual proxy details

username = "your_username"

password = "your_password"

proxy_host = "proxy.example.com"

proxy_port = "8080"  # Or your proxy's port


# Construct the proxy URL with authentication

proxy_url = f"http://{username}:{password}@{proxy_host}:{proxy_port}"


# Set the HTTP_PROXY environment variable

os.environ['HTTP_PROXY'] = proxy_url


# You can also set HTTPS_PROXY for HTTPS requests, using the same format

os.environ['HTTPS_PROXY'] = proxy_url
