connecting to an SFTP server via python

Question

I've been stack for a few days now. I'm wondering if anyone can help me with any suggestions on how to connect to the sFTP server below. The python code I've tried is as follows:

import pysftp

with pysftp.Connection(host ='https://api1.datasource.eex-group.com ', username = 'blablabla', password ='blablabla') as sftp:
    
    print ('Connected!')

When that didn't work, I tried this:

import requests

r = requests.get('https://api1.datasource.eex-group.com', auth=(' username', 'password')) 

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You can try this:

import pysftp
cnopts = pysftp.CnOpts()
cnopts.hostkeys = None   
with pysftp.Connection(host ='https://api1.datasource.eex-group.com ', username = 'blablabla', password ='blablabla', cnopts=cnopts) as sftp:

print ('Connected!')

Else here are a few solutions to this problem: "No hostkey for host ***** found" when connecting to SFTP server with pysftp using private key Verify host key with pysftp "No hostkey for... found" in pysftp code even though cnopts.hostkeys is set to None
