Cannot connect to Datastream via Python
Since last week, I've been having the same connection issue with Datastream via python. I use the following:
from pydatastream import Datastream
DWE = Datastream(username="DS:XXXXXX", password="XXXXXXXX")
But when I attempt to connect, I receive the following connection error:
WebFault: b"Server raised fault: 'User 'DS:XXXXXX' logon failed: Delegate Source 'DSPermissionsPassword' reports: No response from source DSPermissionsPassword'"
I've reached the library's developers here: https://github.com/vfilimonov/pydatastream/issues/21
It was working just fine 2 weeks ago, but it stopped out of the blue. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Please contact your Account Management team for details on and access to Datastream Web Service.

Got the following error
import DatastreamDSWS as dsws
ds = dsws.Datastream(username='XXXXXXX', password='XXXXXXXX')
Token Request : Unexpected error
I have the same problem, and none of the python api's are working.
@ivarejao1 @charles.allderman: Or you can try PyDSWS package. Remember to pass DataStream log in id without DS.
