Convert CURL API command to Python API using requests and json

I am connecting through an API to receive data. From the website API documentation, the instructions use either two CURL methods to connect the API; however, I need to connect using python.
1st Method
Curl Example
curl -d '' -X POST 'https://api.bcda.cms.gov/auth/token' \
-H "accept: application/json" \
-H "authorization: Basic <Client_Secret>"
My Python Conversion:
import requests
import json
url = 'https://api.bcda.cms.gov/auth/token'
headers = {"accept": "application/json", "authorization": 'Basic',
'<API_Key>': '<API_Secret>'}
r = requests.post(url = url, data ={}, headers = headers)
print(r)
2nd Method Curl
curl -d '' -X POST 'https://api.bcda.cms.gov/auth/token' \
--user <Client_Key>:<Client_Secret> \
-H "accept: application/json"
My 2nd Python conversion code:
import requests
import json
url = 'https://api.bcda.cms.gov/auth/token'
user = {"<Client_Key>":"<Client_Secret>", "accept": "application/json"}
r = requests.post(url = url, headers = user)
print(r)
I am receiving a 403 connection error, meaning "response status code indicates that the server understands the request but refuses to authorize it."

You should use auth parameter and not headers to convert --user option
headers = {'accept': 'application/json'}
r = requests.post(url=url, headers=headers, auth=(client_key, client_secret))

How should this PUT curl be converted to python requests?

How can I convert this CURL PUT request to python requests:
The curl is
curl -X PUT "https://example.com" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json-patch+json" -d "{ \"userName\": \"exampleuser\", \"password\": \"examplepass\"}"
Currently got
headers = {"accept": "application/json",
"Content-Type": "application/json-patch+json"}
data = {'\"userName\"': '\"exampleuser\"',
'\"password\"': '\"examplepass\"'}
response = requests.put(url=url, data=data, headers=headers)
print(response)
Currently getting a 401 response. Unfortunately, the curl converter does not recognise it.

In bash, you escaped the quotes of the json
In Python, you shouldn't need to
data = {'userName' : 'exampleuser',
'password': 'examplepass'}
Then, you're sending json, so do json=data instead of data=data

convert curl get to rest api to python

I have this curl command:
curl -X GET --header 'Accept: application/vnd.pagerduty+json;version=2' --header 'Authorization: Token token=y_NbAkKc66ryYTWUXYEu' 'https://api.pagerduty.com/services?time_zone=UTC&sort_by=name'
I need to convert it to python using requests library
import requests
def support(self):
services_list = requests.get('I need to convert the link to pass it here as a parameter')

import requests
def support():
headers = {
'Accept': 'application/vnd.pagerduty+json;version=2',
'Authorization': 'Token token=y_NbAkKc66ryYTWUXYEu'}
payloads = (
('time_zone', 'UTC'),
('sort_by', 'name'),)
services_list = requests.get('https://api.pagerduty.com/services', headers=headers, params=payloads)

Azure and signing keys issues. Works with cure but not completely in python

Very puzzled here - in python using requests I can use GET/POST to do a few different things: POST to request a token, and GET to get public signing key x/y coordinates. And in curl I can sign. But in python it errors.
This works in CURL:
curl -vs -d '{"alg":"ES256", "value":"***"}' -H "Authorization: Bearer REDACTED" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://REDACTED.vault.azure.net/keys/REDACTED/REDACTED/sign?api-version=7.0
but in python this fails:
post_payload = {'alg':'ES256', 'value':'***'}
post_headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer REDACTED', 'Content-Type': 'application/json',}
response = post('https://REDACTED.vault.azure.net/keys/REDACTED/REDACTED/sign?api-version=7.0', data=post_payload, headers=post_headers)
print(response.text)
{"error":{"code":"BadParameter","message":"Property has invalid value\r\n"}}

Convert from curl python Request Error error 401

Im having trouble converting the curl request into a python code request.
Working Curl request
curl -X POST "http://xxxxxx" -H "accept: application/json" -H
"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -H "Authorization:
Token 882a6ec053ff6dbac623eff400f67c0bb6ade399" -d "name=namename"
Not working python request
headers = {
'Authorization ': 'Token ' + "token",
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}
data= {'name': "name"}
r = requests.post(
host_scheme + "://" + host_netloc + "/xxxxx",
data=json.dumps(data),
headers=headers
)
The response of the error is it cannot read the token {"detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided."} when using the python code above.
Any suggestions?

requests.post("http://xxxxxx",
data='name=namename',
headers={
"Authorization": "Token 882a6ec053ff6dbac623eff400f67c0bb6ade399",
"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
"accept": "application/json"
},
cookies={},
)
I used Uncurl. I had to remove the -X POST.
