I'm using the following code to load a WMS layer to QGIS :

url = "https://data.geopf.fr/wms-r/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=normal&FORMAT=image/geotiff&LAYERS=ELEVATION.ELEVATIONGRIDCOVERAGE.HIGHRES&CRS=EPSG:2154&WIDTH=2000&HEIGHT=2000&BBOX="
layer_name = "RGE ALTI"
provider = "wms"

layers = QgsProject.instance().mapLayersByName('bbox')
layer = layers[0]
extent = layer.extent()
bbox_shp = f'{extent.xMinimum()},{extent.yMinimum()},{extent.xMaximum()},{extent.yMaximum()}'

 
url += bbox_shp

layer = QgsRasterLayer(url, layer_name, provider)


if layer.isValid():
    QgsProject.instance().addMapLayer(layer)
    print("Layer added successfully!")

else:
    print("Failed to load layer.")

The layer doesn't load, but when I copy paste the url in a browser, I am able to download the corresponding layer. Anyone has had a similar problem ? N.B : There is no problem with the bounding box shapefile

Edit: I've added the "url=" as mentioned in Loading WMS layer to QGIS using Python, however this does not fix the issue

  • 2000 by 2000 is pretty big for a WMS image, maybe it's too big? Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 9:40
  • I'm not really familiar with adequate resolutions for WMS images, mind explaining? Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 9:44
  • check what the response from the server is - if it is xml then you need read the error and adjust accordingly. Does it work when you add it via the GUI? Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 10:47
  • I dont know how to check the server's response, is there a thread that shows how ? It works using the GUI, but only the png format is visible, when i choose tiff the layer is created but doesn't appear in the canvas. Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 11:53
  • but what is odd is that copy pasting this url : "data.geopf.fr/wms-r/…" directly on the browser makes it download the right layer Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 11:59
