FetchResourceFiles() can't find files was created by Dan

I'm trying to pull weather data from a place near Austin Tx, but the pySAM FetchResourceFiles() tool can't find any nearby stations. I also tried this with Python 3.7.12 and got the same result.

lon_lats = [(-97.74, 30.25)]
nsrdbfetcher = tools.FetchResourceFiles(                
         tech='solar',                
         nrel_api_key=sam_api_key,                
         nrel_api_email=sam_email,
         workers=1,                
         resource_type='psm3-tmy',                
         resource_year='tmy',                
         resource_interval_min=60,)

Traceback. I hope the insecureRequestWarning isn't causing the issue.

Hi Dan,

Did you set the values to nrel_api_key and nrel_api_email?

If you don't have an NREL Developer API key, you can get one here: developer.nrel.gov/signup/.

Thanks,
Paul.

Thank you. I was trying to use my SAM registration key which is different than the NREL Developer API key. Works great now.
