API returns this error and does not work since 2023/5/16 CET.

SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.worldbank.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /v2/en/sources/2/concepts?per_page=1000&page=1&format=json (Caused by SSLError(SSLZeroReturnError(6, 'TLS/SSL connection has been closed (EOF) (_ssl.c:1129)')))

This usually indicates a server side issue that often resolves quickly. It seems to be working for me at the moment. Can you test again, and if you still have problems, post the code you are trying to run?

It could also be a problem in your local HTTPS config. Try running this code. If it also fails then the problem is in your local config.

>>> import requests
>>> response = requests.get('https://api.worldbank.org/v2/en/sources/2/concepts?per_page=1000&page=1&format=json')
>>> response.json()
[snip]
>>> response = requests.get('https://github.com')
>>> response.content[:200]
[snip]
