How do I authenticate AccountAPI using wordnik-python3?

[Jodi Schneider]

Hi,

I can get definitions successfully, but I'm having difficulty authenticating the AccountAPI using wordnik-python3. I can set up AccountApi but when I call the authenticate method I receive a HTTP 403 error. I've checked my login details are correct, on both the website and with the Swagger JSON script. I ran the Wordnik test script and 19 of the 30 tests failed, including authenticate.

My code and error output are below. Does anyone have advice on what I may be doing wrong? 

Thanks!

from wordnik import * #see https://github.com/wordnik/wordnik-python3

apiUrl = 'http://api.wordnik.com/v4'

apiKey = 'anonymizing'

client = swagger.ApiClient(apiKey, apiUrl)

USER = 'anonymizing'

PW =  'anonymizing'

account = AccountApi.AccountApi(client)

response = account.authenticate(USER, PW)

Hi

I am not very familiar with python. Quick question; is the 503 error in the Wordnik response?

The “http_error_default” is what is making me ask the question

Thanks
