Python / Rest中的身份验证问题

Question

My issue is that I keep getting a "Response [401]" which I from what I have seen online means there is an authentication error. I am trying to create a new user via Rest calls in python. I am quite new to Python/Rest so I am sure there is something I am missing.

Below is my code:

import requests
import json
import base64

print("Script Running")
username = ‘UN’
password = ‘PW’
tempString = username + ':' + password
encodedString = base64.b64encode(tempString.encode())
data = {"name": "changeUser", "password": "12345","emailAddress": "emailaddress@some.com","displayName": "changeUser","notification" : "false"}
url = "http://myserver.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/user/"
headers = {'Authentication': 'Basic ' + tempString, 'Content-type': 'application/json', 'Accept': 'application/json', 'X-Atlassian-Token': 'no-check' }

print(encodedString)
r = requests.post(url, json.dumps(data), headers)
print(r)
print("Script Ending")

encodedString returns b'stringofstuff=' print(r) returns Response[401]

Answer 1

requests has options for all of this. I'd just use

r = requests.post(url, json=data, auth=(username, password))

Answer 2

Have you used a separate HTTP client to make this call? Try using Postman to make the call using the same data so you can determine where to start looking first.

Also - What exactly are you supposed to be doing with encodedString? The only time you use it is in the print call.
