I'm getting this error message running the simple example from the "Datastream Web Service Getting Started with Python Guide". This was running fine a few days ago. Any suggestions, please?

It may receive an invalid response from the server.
To verify the retrieved response, please run this code when the problem occurred.
import requests
post_msg = {
"DataRequest": {
"DataTypes": [
{
"Properties": None,
"Value": "P"
}
],
"Date": {
"End": "",
"Frequency": "",
"Kind": 0,
"Start": ""
},
"Instrument": {
"Properties": None,
"Value": "VOD"
},
"Tag": None
},
"Properties": {
"Key": "Source",
"Value": None
},
"TokenValue": ds.tokenResp['TokenValue']
}
res = requests.post("https://product.datastream.com/DSWSClient/V1/DSService.svc/rest/GetData", json=post_msg)
print(res.status_code)
print(res.headers)
print(res.text)
The output looks like:
