Python Request.Post到API不起作用

Question

I am trying to send a simple POST to an api.

import requests
url ="http://someapi/v1/auth"
payload = {'username': '', 'password': ''}
s1 = requests.post(url, headers={"content-type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"}, data=json.dumps(payload))  
print s1.status_code

I keep getting status code 401.

Same steps Works fine in POSTMAN.

Any Ideas/pointers ?

Answer 1

Post data in raw format.

payload = "username=;password=;"

s1 = requests.post(
    url, 
    headers={"content-type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"},
    data=payload)

FWIW, you can click on Code below the Save button on the top right corner of Postman to view code in a couple of languages for your request.

Answer 2

It will only works if the API accepts also JSON body. Otherwise you can use the @Oluwafemi Sule's answer.

import requests
url ="http://someapi/v1/auth"
payload = {'username': '', 'password': ''}
s1 = requests.post(url, headers={"content-type":"application/json"}, data=json.dumps(payload))  
print s1.status_code

Answer 3

This code worked for me.

import requests
from requests_ntlm import HttpNtlmAuth
payload = "username=;password=;"
s= requests.post(
        "http://someapi/v1/auth", 
        headers={"content-type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"},
        data = payload, 
        auth=HttpNtlmAuth('',''))
print s.status_code
