Export/import policy package error: KeyError: 'sid'

[Shaimaa]

Hello,

I'm trying to use the python tool export/import policy package, i'm getting the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "..\CKP_outil_export-import\ExportImportPolicyPackage-master\import_expor
t_package.py", line 41, in <module>
payload=payload)
File "..\Python379\lib\site-packages\cpapi\mgmt_api.py", line 211, in login
return self._common_login_logic(credentials, continue_last_session, domain,
read_only, payload)
File "..\Python379\lib\site-packages\cpapi\mgmt_api.py", line 168, in _common_
login_logic
self.sid = login_res.data["sid"]
KeyError: 'sid'

I use the 1st option (1. Enter user credentials manually), I don't know whey it's searching for the sid

Is there a specific configuration to do in checkpoint side? I used two different users (admin and another user but i have the same problem)

Thanks in advance for your help.

The SID will be used internally, that's basically your token for connecting to the API. Worth checking to see if you can use mgmt_cli locally on your management server with those credentials. If that works out ok - check that your API settings allow connections from the host you're running the script on.
