I am trying to do a simple GET request to this url: link

Here\'s the basic python code which I already use for other urls and works.

Answer 1

The problem is, that the server announces support for TLS1.0 but if you actually try to talk to it using TLS1.0 it will break. Instead you have to use SSL3.

You can do so by using the SSLAdapter included with the requests_toolbelt package: http://toolbelt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/user.html#ssladapter.

Then use ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv3 instead of the one shown in the documentation.
