[Psr18delhi]

I was trying to extract my subscribed pulses but i am not able to download that. I am getting the above error. is there is any limit to download the subscribed or following pulses. I have 50K+ pulses in my dashboard is this is too large to download.

earlier i was able to download the 42K pulses. but this time i am getting the error. Please provide the solution.

[rustybrooks]

I didn't see this until now - are you still having problems with it? Can you post some of your code, or send it to me at rbrooks@alienvault.com and I'll take a look? Please be careful not to post code with your API key in it!

[Psr18delhi]

@rustybrooks can you please help me to resolve this?

from OTXv2 import OTXv2, IndicatorTypes
from pandas import json_normalize
from datetime import datetime, timedelta, date
import json
import pandas

otx = OTXv2(API Key)
pulses = otx.getall()
events = otx.getsince(timestamp = "2023-02-23")

Till 10th Feb 2023. I was able to use the same functions and get the results. but then after I got the below error message.

Can you please help me to solve this problem?

[basvs]

We have the same problem;
library version: OTXv2-1.5.12

Everything worked until February 25th.

requests.exceptions.RetryError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='otx.alienvault.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/v1/pulses/subscribed?limit=50&modified_since=2023-02-25T23%3A00%3A07.206000 (Caused by ResponseError('too many 504 error responses'))

We tried the library with both limit=20 and limit=50.

We also tried to request the URL with wget without the limit, but with the modified_since. That worked, but the library always sends the limit parameter..

[rholloway]

You are not alone @basvs . Not sure what's changed recently but the past couple weeks we have had very unstable results as well. Haven't made any changes on our end but getting lots of 504 recently.

[Psr18delhi]

@rustybrooks did you have any update?

[rustybrooks]

I haven't worked on OTX in well over a year. I don't actually know who's responsible for the OTX backend infrastructure these days. Sorry.

[Psr18delhi]

@chrisdoman any update?

[AnduinBrian]

i still have the same problem
my code is simple:

from OTXv2 import OTXv2
from OTXv2 import IndicatorTypes

otx = OTXv2("xxxx")
pulse = otx.getall(max_items=3, limit=5)
print(pulse) 

Even i set the limit but still have error: OTXv2.RetryError: 'Exceeded maximum number of retries'
The status code is 504. I think this api might dead lol
