Python help channel opened

Remember to:

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

@subtle moss you can't attach PDF files here. The most you can do is copy and paste the text from that and into a pastebin service

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the Paste! button in the bottom left, or by pressing CTRL + S. After doing that, you will be navigated to the new paste's page. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

XPM is not even an app...it'a project management strategy...

#

Where do you even need to extract CSV from?

subtle moss Sep 8, 2025, 4:27 PM

#

xero practice management, its like a to do app for teams.

#

i think

#

clients put their bookkeeping jobs there.

#

assign them to workers.

#

or bidders.

#

then those bidders assign jobs to their employees.

void karma Sep 8, 2025, 4:28 PM

#

You probably don't need to export the CSV if you could just send a "GET" request for all data endpoints

#

manually is better but somehow they want the "automation stuff"

I guess because of API quota they prefer a scraper... just guessing

Shady project

subtle moss Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

I jsut want to secure my job .-.

void karma Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

#

Digging into the docs, I don't see anything about rate limiting or having a quota on the requests

i think its a paid software

void karma Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

Doesn't look like you need to do scraping

subtle moss Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

#

so it will probably have that.

subtle moss Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

#

void karma Doesn't look like you need to do scraping

yea

#

you can just download the csv file

#

like in google sheet

void karma Sep 8, 2025, 4:32 PM

#

subtle moss i think its a paid software

I know its a paid software. But they're handling your HTTP requests via OAuth

#

So its fine

subtle moss Sep 8, 2025, 4:33 PM
