Request error on Flask

Question

Trying to make a request from web App on Pythonanywhere (paid account) with a Flask. This works as needed on local PC, but receives an error on Pythonanywhere.

@app.route('/test/')
def test():
 url_cookies='https://www.phoenixcontact.com/online/portal/ru/pxc/offcontext/'
 headers = {'authority': 'www.phoenixcontact.com',  'method': 'GET','user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.132 Safari/537.36'}
 requestCookies = requests.get(url_cookies,headers=headers)
 return 'Test'+requestCookies.text

What's the error that you're getting? Your call to requests.get will return a response object. You're calling that requestCookies, so it would be useful to know the values of requestCookies.status_code and requestCookies.content. — Giles Thomas

I got 504 error, and it seems like the site I trying to request just blocking any activity from pythonanywhere. — Andrey

pythonanywhere has a only allowed limited webpages to be scrapped with the free version. You can remove this restriction by upgrading to one of their premium plans.

You might consider using FreeHosts like OpenShift for hosting your app.

Don't think that's the issue here -- the poster says that he has a paid account.

Sorry, I noticed that after answering the question. But didn't delete the answer as I thought that it might be informative to others.
