Linking CoastSat to GEE server [HTTP error 404]

[Alain705]

When running the example at the third part or the code to retrieve satellite images from GEE. "metadata = SDS_download.retrieve_images(inputs)" it return an error.

The error code returned is:

~\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\envs\coastsat\lib\site-packages\ee\data.py in send_(path, params, opt_method, opt_raw)
1194 # error above rather than this generic one.
1195 raise ee_exception.EEException(
-> 1196 'Server returned HTTP code: %d' % response.status)
1197
1198 # Now known not to be an error response...

EEException: Server returned HTTP code: 404

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi @Alain705 , I have never seen this error before....can you try the following on the Anaconda Prompt:

• conda activate coastsat
• python
• import ee
• ee.Initialize()

This is to check that you are correctly linked to the GEE server. Let me know.
Also which OS are you on? Are you connected to internet without firewalls? HTTP error 404 is usually that it cannot reach a website. If still not working check out what I proposed as a solution for issue #40

ok this issue was solved in issue #33.

The new procedure is that you need to directly request access to to Google Earth Engine at https://signup.earthengine.google.com/ and wait ~1day for approval before running the earthengine authenticate command
