Hi PA,

I am receiving the following error when I'm reaching out to the https://app.pluralsight.com/guides area.

ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 403 Forbidden',)))

I have seen similar topics for other sites. Is there any way to whitelist this address?

Best Regards, Daniel

Is it an officially-supported public API? If so, we may be able to whitelist it -- we'll need a link to the API documentation, though.

Hi Giles,

This is the link for the documentation. https://www.pluralsight.com/product/professional-services/white-paper/api

I'm only parsing the /guides context root as I want my python app to show them when someone hits the /psight context root. I'm a written guide author at pluralsight and I wanted to extend my portfolio by showing my guides.

Best Regards, Daniel

Thanks! That's whitelisted now.

Hi Giles,

Many thanks for the whitelist.

There is another redirect in the call.

2019-08-13 23:34:42,472: requests.exceptions.ProxyError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.pluralsight.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /guides (Caused by ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 403 Forbidden',)))

Do you think you could whitelist the www.pluralsight.com too?

Best Regards, Daniel

Send us a link to the API documentation and we'll consider it for the whitelist.

Hi Glenn,

This is the only documentation: https://www.pluralsight.com/product/professional-services/white-paper/api

When we hit the app.pluralsight.com we first communicate with pluralsight.com, then we get redirected to the subdoomain.

Best Regards, Daniel

Hi Daniel,

It doesn't seem like https://www.pluralsight.com/guides is a page intended for api consumption?

We would only be whitelisting the api itself, not the docs listing the api.
