The python notebook says to replace YOUR_KEY with your actual API key. It doesnt say anywhere where to specify the key.

@rayschippers Do you mean where to find the key?. That would be https://otx.alienvault.com/settings/

I mean, in the documentation it says otx = OTXv2("") in the code snippet
and below that it states replace YOUR_KEY with your API Key found at ......
The code snippet should read otx = OTXv2("YOUR_KEY")

I can confirm this is still an issue in 2017 and Alien Vault hasn't fixed this or seems to not indicate or record any other documentation on their Python API anywhere on the web. Their site is going well but did they abandon this whole project? If you make an SDK you would expect the documentation to be longer than one page and incomplete at that...

@lillypad are you unable to use OTX-Python-SDK? This is a documentation issue and the fix is noted above:

otx = OTXv2("YOUR_KEY")

I submitted a PR to fix the documentation.

I know, just seems odd they haven't merged it yet in literally 2 years...

With @bsmartt13 pull hopefully this is clarified. In addition I added a link to the live API documentation hosted in the site for more clarity on the contents of the API calls.
