Basic API Stuff
posted by hwstroud76STAFFMOD on August 26, 2015 at 3:25 PM
I haven't used API's without a text wrapper before, but when we're just requesting the url for authorization of a new token, this is how I have it:
request = Request('http://api.themoviedb.org/3/account?api_key='+api_Key, headers=headers)
I'm getting an unauthorized error, and I know it's a simple fix, but I'm not sure what it is.

Hi hwstroud76,
In order to access an account method, you will need to create a session id first. Have you done this? The steps to generate a new session are outlined here.
