Hi 

 

In your code  "decode('utf-8')" missing in jwt generation. Attaching the sample working code, you can replace the access, secret, and account id with proper details and rename the attached file with .py extension and try again

Also sample code for both Java and Python you can get from: https://github.com/zephyrdeveloper/zapi-cloud

 

Thanks,

Jagadeesh

    Hi, thanks. I had the decode function, but I don't know if don't have the right jwt library, because when using it I get this error:

     

    token = jwt.encode(payload_token, SECRET_KEY, algorithm='HS256').strip().decode('utf-8')
    AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'
