UTF encoding error in api_request #40

Closed clin045 closed 2 years ago

clin045 commented 2 years ago

I have been getting the follow error when trying to validate a manifest file submission:

UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode character '\ufeff' in position 0: Body ('\ufeff') is not valid Latin-1. Use body.encode('utf-8') if you want to send it encoded in UTF-8.

This can be fixed by adding a call to the .encode() method below line 79 in Utils.py:

79     try:
80         if data is not None:
81             data = data.encode('utf-8')
82         r = session.send(requests.Request(verb, endpoint, headers,           auth=auth, data=data).prepare(),
83                          timeout=300, stream=False)

Happy to put in a PR if that would make things easier.

Sorry for the delayed response. We are in the process of testing this fix and will deploy an update tomorrow or early next week.
