Connection Aborted when calling an API

Hi,

I call an API using the requests module, specifically the Woo Commerce API. Some API requests work okay, but when it randomly just aborts the connection. I don't know if this is a python anywhere issue. Any help would be great. Here is the error log:

It's not a very helpful error message. The only thing I can suggest is to try different versions of requests. It may be either that the site is using older protocols that are no longer supported by the version of requests that you're using or it could be the opposite - the version of requests that you're using is too old and the site is using newer versions of protocols that are not available in the requests that you're using.

Okay I'll give that ago, the error is so annoying because it's not really useful. I just want to confirm that it isn't a python anywhere issue on your end?

No, it is not
