Reading .xlsx file from sharepoint v7.9

Hi All,

I am trying to find a method to read .xlsx file from SharePoint. Would need your help to do it effectively.

Trying to access HTTP

url = system.net.httpPut("Share point link here")
print url 

and getting error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<buffer>", line 15, in <module>
IOError: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: SharePoint Here

Blockquote

httpPut would send a file to a target server. Try httpGet.

Hi,
I am receiving same error here

url=system.net.httpGet("https link here")

Well, that response means “forbidden”. You will need to show more details for us to help you, but you will at least need to authenticate to Sharepoint. v7.9 has a less than optimal implementation–the httpClient tool in v8.x is probably needed. Or perhaps using an ancient (python 2.5.2 compatible) version of the python requests module.
