authentication issues with pipx and wrong requests version [solution] #1

Just leaving this here for anyone encountering the same issue. From: https://github.com/kiwiz/gkeepapi/issues/81#issuecomment-762884244

If you install using pipx you might have issues with authentication failing. This isn't an issue with the username/password, but an issue with one of the Python libraries. If you use 2.23.0 of requests, it works perfectly:

pipx install keep-exporter 
pipx inject keep-exporter requests===2.23.0

I was then able to set up keep-exporter and sync my notes, using a Google app password.

Thank you for publishing this project.

Glad it was of some use for you!

Thanks for the information, I'm going to leave this issue open until I update the README.
