unable to access the API

Question

Hello,

I am trying the python library for Confluence API but getting the error

raise ApiPermissionError(
atlassian.errors.ApiPermissionError: The calling user does not have permission to view the content

does anyone know what sort of rights are needed or from where can i check the rights?

confluence = Confluence(

url='https://devconfluence.cyberport.de/display/BI/Business+Intelligence',

username='kt****',

password='*****'    )
print(confluence)

<atlassian.confluence.Confluence object at 0x029491C0>

also does the above output mean that my connection with Confluence was successful?

how can i check my rights

also, if i run the part of the url till

url='https://devconfluence.cyberport.de/',

i get the response for status= confluence.get_all_spaces()

but not for the space that i'm looking for when i use the url

url='https://devconfluence.cyberport.de/display/BI/',

Hi Kiran,

A user's permissions in the API align with their permissions in the UI. Verify that user has appropriate permissions for the action you are attempting. Cheers!
