[Python] Python Upload Files to Sharepoint using Shareplum

I am using this much-shared code to try and upload a file to Sharepoint using Shareplum, into the Shared Documents folder.


import requests
from shareplum import Office365

# Set Login Info
username = 'my.email@address.com'
password = 'myverifiedapppassword'
site_name = 'mysite'
base_path = 'https://xxxxxxxx.sharepoint.com'
doc_library = 'Shared%20Documents'
file_name = "hellotest.txt" #when your file in the same directory

# Obtain auth cookie
authcookie = Office365(base_path, username=username, password=password).GetCookies()
session = requests.Session()
session.cookies = authcookie
session.headers.update({'user-agent': 'python_bite/v1'})
session.headers.update({'accept': 'application/json;odata=verbose'})

session.headers.update({'X-RequestDigest': 'FormDigestValue'})
response = session.post(url=base_path + "/sites/" + site_name + "/_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('" + doc_library + "')/Files/add(url='a.txt',overwrite=true)",
data="")
session.headers.update({'X-RequestDigest': response.headers['X-RequestDigest']})

# Upload file
with open(file_name, 'rb') as file_input:
try:
response = session.post(
url=base_path + "/sites/" + site_name + f"/_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('" + doc_library + "')/Files/add(url='"
+ file_name + "',overwrite=true)",

data=file_input)
print("response: ", response.status_code) #it returns 200
if response.status_code == '200':
print("File uploaded successfully")
except Exception as err:
print("Something went wrong: " + str(err))

print('File Uploaded Successfully')

The problem is occuring wheen running the code....i am always getting a traceback and a keyerror as follows:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "S:\upload.py", line 22, in session.headers.update({'X-RequestDigest': response.headers['X-RequestDigest']}) File "C:\Python39\lib\site-packages\requests\structures.py", line 54, in getitem return self._store[key.lower()][1] KeyError: 'x-requestdigest'

Something to do with x-requestdigest isnt working properly, in line 22, but i cannot figure out what. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!!

thanks
