Hi Scott,

In the Authorization setting in headers, it appears you're just sending the token itself.  I think you meant to use:

'Authorization': auth_str

Hope that helps!

      Is the file you're downloading JSON?  If not then you'll get an error with those JSON commands.  You can access the body of the response with "r.content" or "r.text" depending on the file type.


      ​r = requests.get(
      request_str,
      headers = headers
      )
      print(r.content)
      ​

        No. The response only contains the error.
