>From what you're written, I think you've become confused by different Python projects that have similar names and APIs.
In Pyramid, we have a "request" object in each view. Pyramid's "request" is a subclass of WebOb (http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/latest/narr/webob.html). It represents the active request. Pyramid's "request" can be configured to have a "session" attribute that is used to maintain state between requests for a single user ("request.session"). On each Pyramid "request" (web page view), Pyramid can automatically create a `request.session` for you (if sessions are enabled). This is entirely unrelated to the Python library called `requests`, which is what you would need to communicate with the REST server and would be configured with your API credentials.. If you want to use the `requests` library to talk to the REST API, you have to create a new instance of the "Session" object from the `requests` library in your view. The "Session" object from the `requests` library can `.get()` or `.post()` to the REST API. That `requests` object would need to be configured with the account data (which you can store in Pyramid's `request.session`). Pyramid will not generate or persist the Session object from `requests` across connections for you; it is not related to `request.session` or Pyramid at all. On every Pyramid view, you will need to create a new `requests` library Session object and use it to talk to the 3rd party API. If you want to persist any data, you can store that in Pyramid's `request.session` storage. You can not use a "global" instance of `requests.Session`, because of issues with multiple users or a single user hitting a different pyramid worker. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
