question

I have a python app that i am building that needs to delete and upload images to SSRS.
The issue i have is to authenticate against the ssrs api the documentation says i should specify username, password and domain and should get a token back.
For some reason i keep getting 401 or 400 error when i try to generate a session.

i am using the api documentation here: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/microsoft-rs/SSRS/2.0#/Session/CreateSession

Here is the part of my code that will not authenticate i have no idea why

user = ''
pwd = ''
domain = ''
report_url = ''

import requests
import json
class ssrs():

  def __init__(self,Org,user,pwd):

      self.org                = Org

      self.user               = user

      self.pwd                = pwd

      self.verifcationErrors  = []

  def authorize(self):

      try:

          self.url = f"http://{self.org}/reports/api/v2.0/Session"

          self.payload = json.dumps({"username": f"{self.user}","password": f"{self.pwd}"})

          self.header = {'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Accept': 'application/json'}

          self.response = requests.request("POST", self.url, headers=self.header, auth=self.payload)

          return self.response.status_code

      except Exception as e:

          return e

var = ssrs(Org=report_url,user=user, pwd = pwd).authorize()
print(var)

Looking for some help on others that have been able to successfully connect to ssrs and run rest api commands

pd: i also tried using

from requests_negotiate_sspi import HttpNegotiateAuth
auth=HttpNegotiateAuth()

to provide credentials and it didn't work either
