set_app_key handshake

Hello, after having set an app key, I am trying the python eikon package.

python 3.8.13

eikon 1.1.16

httpx 0.24.1 (putting it there as I saw that this package was of importance).

I am working behind a proxy, windows environment.

I tried to relog on / log off my eikon session and tried with a new app key but nothing happened.


I can access https://emea1.apps.cp.thomsonreuters.com/ via my web browser.


Code:

import eikon as ek

app_key = "my_app_key"
ek.set_app_key(api_key)

@charles.cadestin

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You can test the request by running the following command in PowerShell.

(Invoke-WebRequest -Method POST -Body (@{"AppKey"="<app key>";"AppScope"="trapi";"ApiVersion"="1";"LibraryName"="RDP Python Library";"LibraryVersion"="1.1.7"}|ConvertTo-Json) -Uri http://127.0.0.1:9060/api/handshake -ContentType application/json)

Change "<app key>" to your application key.

The response looks like this:

Thank you very much for your prompt answer!

So the code returns a code error 500 that seems to indicate I don't have access.
