Downloading sharepoint lists using python

[tanjil]

Hello,

I am trying to download lists from SharePoint into a pandas dataframe. However I cannot get any information successfully. I have attempted many solution mentioned in stackoverflow. Below is one of those attempts:

# https://pypi.org/project/sharepoint/
 
 
from sharepoint import SharePointSite, basic_auth_opener
  
server_url = "https://teamup.<company_name>.com/"
site_url = server_url + "sites/pt/service/metrics/sitedata/"
opener = basic_auth_opener(server_url, username, password)
site = SharePointSite(site_url, opener)

When the following code is executed I am getting an error:

for sp_list in site.lists:
    print(sp_list.id, sp_list.meta['Title'])

Error generated:

<urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known>

Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Tanjil

Please use sharepy https://pypi.org/project/sharepy/ sharepoint library which you are using wasn't updated since 2015.

Alternative way is to use Azure logic apps and from there save it to Azure Data Lake Storage in format of your choice.

Thank you Hubert for your answer.

However, when running the following line:

s = sharepy.connect(SPUrl,username,password)

I am getting the following error:

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'.

Hello,

I have gotten the code to work by using office365 library instead.
