Following this thread, https://stackoverflow.com/a/2582070/6534818, I am wondering if there is any room for improvement to my REST API query that would limit the frequency to which I receive the following error: "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"
. The thread suggests, as one possibility, that the query is malformed.
My general setup for a query to Azure DevOps is as follows:
# Access Token pat = "secret_token_here" # authorization encoding authorization = str(base64.b64encode(bytes(":" + pat, "ascii")), "ascii") # url url = "https://dev.azure.com/org/project/" # REST headers headers = {"Accept": "application/json", "Authorization": "Basic " + authorization} # GET response = requests.get( url=(url + "_apis/wit/workItems/%s/revisions?api-version=6.0" % str(work_item)), headers=headers, )
I tend to suffer this issue when running this in a loop, perhaps every 4th or 5th total run, looking up each item of interest.
