Hi, Do you have an updated version of it? For example: session = requests.session(auth=(USERNAME, PASSWORD)) is not working with an error: TypeError: session() takes no arguments (1 given)
I changed it to "session = requests.Session(auth=(USERNAME, PASSWORD)) " and still it fails with an error: TypeError: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'auth'
any help is much appreciated.
