Sharepoint Authentication With Python

I'm trying to use python to download an excel file that is hosted in a sharepoint which is part of the Microsoft Azure platform. I tried to retrieve the file with HTTPforhumans's r

Solution 1:

Try O365 rest python clientlibrary.it supports SharePoint Online authentication and allows to download/upload a file as demonstrated below: Please find the code here:

ctx_auth = AuthenticationContext(url)
ctx_auth.acquire_token_for_user(username,password)   
ctx = ClientContext(url, ctx_auth)
response = File.open_binary(context, "/Shared Documents/User Guide.docx")
with open("./User Guide.docx", "wb") as local_file:
    local_file.write(response.content)

You can download the latest version using below command

pip install git+https://github.com/vgrem/Office365-REST-Python-Client.git
