python api client SSL ERROR

I am getting the following error while trying to connect to the automation node using the python api client
requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='dataiku-auto.fg.rbc.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /dip/publicapi/projects/card_engagement_class/scenarios/scheduled_partition/run (Ca\
used by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:852)'),))
How can I fix this, can I tell the api client not to perform and ssl check?

This error comes from the SSL setup of your automation node. You will need to fix it to prevent the requests package from complaining.
Alternatively, you can also pass verify=False to your get call, that will skip verification of SSL certificates, although I cannot recommend it as a proper solution... Since that kind of defeats the point of having HTTPS on your node.
If your certificate is self signed, you can also pass a cert file to your get call, you'll find more information in the documentation of the requests package.
Hope I'm not missing something, please provide more context so I can help further if this answer isn't satisfying. -
Hi,
I am using the rest-api client (see here https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/python-api/rest-api-client/index.html)
I read the source code for the rest-api client, it is using the python requests package (see https://pypi.org/project/requests/). I thought of adding the verify=False, however the rest-api client does not allow this.
1- Can you say how to setup SSL for our automation node.
2- Can you say how I can set verify= False for the api-client, I checked the documentation, but is does not seem to support that parameter.

Hi,
Thanks for the details, sorry my answer was not really fitting for your use case then!
1. I can't help here I think, except by pointing you to the documentation https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/installation/custom_install.html#configuring-https
2. There is indeed an option to disable SSL checks, sorry that I didn't understand straight away. Here is the link https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/python-api/outside-usage.html#disabling-ssl-certificate-check -
Great,
I tried downloading the dataiku api from here http(s)://DSS_HOST:DSS_PORT/public/packages/dataiku-internal-client.tar.gz
But it is not available. Is there another place I can obtain this file. -
What version of DSS are you using?
-
5.0.4
-
This is only possible since version 5.1.0 unfortunately
-
I submitted your issue to other members of the team and here is the proper answer:
- to use the dataikuapi package outside of DSS you need to add the root authority that signed the DSS SSL certificate to your local trust store.
- you can also disable checking the SSL certificate by setting
client._session.verify = False -
See my other answer that should solve your problem, this information will be added in our documentation

Thank you! This works!
