Error in connecting Binance testnet; API Secret required for private endpoints

[maromato]

When I tried to connect Binance testnet, I had a secret key issue. Does anybody know how to fix this?

api_key = os.environ.get('API KEY FOR TESTNET')
api_secret = os.environ.get('SCRET KEY FOR TESTNET')
client = Client(api_key, api_secret, testnet=True)
client.API_URL = 'https://testnet.binance.vision/api'
# get balances for all assets & some account information

print(client.get_account())

gave an error as below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, the code below gave a correct response.

btc_price = client.get_symbol_ticker(symbol="BTCUSDT")

print(btc_price)

{'symbol': 'BTCUSDT', 'price': '29186.56000000'}

I think this would be a secret key recognition issue??

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Google Colab
• Python version: [3.7]
• python-binance version:python-binance-1.0.16

Sorry. The below worked 👍

# init
api_key = 'API KEY FOR TESTNET'
api_secret ='SECRET KEY FOR TESTNET'
client = Client(api_key, api_secret, testnet=True)
client.API_URL = 'https://testnet.binance.vision/api'
#client.API_URL = 'https://testnet.binancefuture.com
