I need to write a simple test script for rest get using python. What I have is:

import request
url = 'http://myurl......net'
headers ={'content-type':'application/xml'}
r= requests.get(url,headers=headers)

so this give me the following SSL error:
[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed(_ssl.c:590)

So, i did some research and add " verify = False" to the end of my last line of code, but not I am stuck with: : InsecureRequestsWarning, Unverified request is been made. Addig certificate verification is strongly advised."

What to do to get rid of this message?

Why would you get an SSL error on an `http:` request? Is the site automatically redirecting you to `https:`? – John Gordon Jul 19 '16 at 21:07
