Bodies Event: always 422 error

[jacanestro]

What's wrong with this code in Pyhon??? I get always 422 error.

def q3():
    # Query 3
    payload3 = "{\"observer\":{\"latitude\":27.73,\"longitude\":-15.57,\"elevation\":0,\"from_date\":\"2024-04-30\",\"to_date\":\"2024-04-23\",\"time\":\"23:50:00\"}}"
    data = urllib.parse.urlencode(headers)
    data = data.encode('ascii') # data should be bytes

    conn.request("GET","https://api.astronomyapi.com/api/v2/bodies/events/:moon",payload3,headers)
    res = conn.getresponse()
    data = res.read()
    #print(data.decode("utf-8"))

    parsed = json.loads(data.decode("utf-8"))
    print(json.dumps(parsed, indent=4))

I always get this error:

Seems like you're sending the payload as the request body. It needs to sent as url params. See the correct example below.

conn.request("GET", "/api/v2/bodies/positions?longitude=-84.39733&latitude=33.775867&elevation=1&from_date=2024-05-13&to_date=2024-05-13&time=12%3A58%3A06", headers=headers)
