Authentication 404 Error about pyairtable

[gtalarico]

I am sorry I don't understand the question. Can you include a code snippet?
url_safe_table_name is an internal local variable and does need to be touched.
I tested against one of the default bases and it seems to be working fine.

>>> from airtable import Airtable
>>> table = Airtable(base_key='appEioitPbxI72w06', table_name='Editorial', api_key='keyMyKey')
>>> table.get_all()
[{'id': 'rec9B3nlOhIxUVX1e', 'fields': [... TRUNCATED]
>>> table.url_table
'https://api.airtable.com/v0/appEioitPbxI72w06/Editorial'

Note the generate url matches the documentation, minus the api_key which is added in the request headers instead of url query params

Ok, thanks a bunch!

Not to flock this issue with unrelated questions, but I noticed the airtable API doesn't allow for creating and reading comments. You haven't found a way to work around this, have you?

Again, thanks for all the help.

I believe I corrected myself, I restored everything back to normal.

Turns out the only weird issue I had was when I used the url_safe_table_name for authentication it returned a 404, but using the table_name allowed me to create the Airtable class.

Is there something wrong with this approach?

When the table name includes characters such as % the safe_url changes the string slightly:

>>> airtable = Airtable("appipCCmuh5ixrmxX","Content%20production")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin'>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\theom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\airtable\airtable.py", line 131, in __init__
    self.is_authenticated = self.validate_session(self.url_table)
  File "C:\Users\theom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\airtable\airtable.py", line 138, in validate_session
    raise ValueError('Invalid base or table name: {}'.format(url))
ValueError: Invalid base or table name: https://api.airtable.com/v0/appipCCmuh5ixrmxX/Content%2520production

Am I missing something very obvious? Perhaps using the appropriate escape character?

[gtalarico]

auto url escape was added by a contributor on #10
Did you try using the un-escaped version of the table name?

airtable = Airtable("appipCCmuh5ixrmxX","Content production")

should correctly result in the url below:

https://api.airtable.com/v0/appipCCmuh5ixrmxX/Content%20production

Not that I know of. I don't think thats exposed through the api

I had the same bug.
Thanks for the help gtalarico.
