I'm following the quickstart code here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/bing-web-search/quickstarts/client-libraries?pivots=programming-language-python
I'm using a Bing Resource with the Free Tier.
The endpoint I'm using is https://api.bing.microsoft.com/

Why am I getting these errors and how to solve the issue?

    Thank you very much, but this did not solve the issue,
    Also I am trying to use Bing search rather than image search.

    Could you please direct me to the document regarding news search (similar to the one I shard in the first post)

    I get the following error:

    HTTPError Traceback (most recent call last)
    <ipython-input-7-808139fa1eb0> in <module>
    1 response = requests.get(search_url, headers=headers, params=params)
    ----> 2 response.raise_for_status()
    3 search_results = response.json()
    4 thumbnail_urls = [img["thumbnailUrl"] for img in search_results["value"][:16]]

    /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/requests/models.py in raise_for_status(self)

    942 if http_error_msg:
