Anaplan Certificate Authentication using python

timmapuramreddy

Hello everyone,

 

We are working on POC to integrate Anaplan with the other system in the enterprise, We are using Python, and currently struck at the Certificate Authentication

 

We are using the below Code to Test the Authentication using the Certificate (public Key), Private Key and we are following, Please find the attached python script that we are using

 

Code Reference: https://community.anaplan.com/t5/Best-Practices/Transactional-API-Tutor/ta-p/90275

 

 

below is the error

 

C:\python> python auth_test.py
Enter PEM pass phrase:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi @timmapuramreddy 

I think your private key is encrypted and requires the password to load it. While you were trying to get the private key through Openssl you might have provided password for it. So when you want to load the private key then you should provide the password.

private key without encryption begin with 

------Begin PRIVATE KEY-----------

------End PRIVATE KEY-------------

private key with encryption begin with

------Begin Encrypted PRIVATE KEY-------

-------End Encrypted PRIVATE KEY--------

 

from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import serialization

>>> with open("path/to/key.pem", "rb") as key_file:
...     private_key = serialization.load_pem_private_key(
...         key_file.read(),
...         password=None,
...     )

Also the URL that you have provided in the code should be https://auth.anaplan.com/token/authenticate
