EarthData authentication #423

Closed nmt28 closed 1 year ago

nmt28 commented 1 year ago

Hi, this may have been solved already but it looks like EarthData now needs a token which icepyx is not set up to take:

['This service has been retired. The new authentication service is described at https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/EL/How+to+Generate+a+User+Token.']

Hello @nmt28 - can you share what version of icepyx you're using? Our most recent release (0.7.0) included some authentication updates (namely using earthaccess behind the scenes now) given the impending retirement of a certain token type at NSIDC. The hope was that this would mean users didn't need to know/worry about the change, but it does require the most recent version of icepyx. If it's an issue that's still happening with the newest version, then we will need to dig in.
