Python Requests Post No Verify

If you are working with Python and making HTTP requests, you may come across the need to make a POST request while ignoring SSL verification. One way to do this is by using the Requests library and setting the "verify" parameter to False.

Example:


import requests

response = requests.post('https://example.com', verify=False, data={'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'})

print(response.text)

In the above example, we are making a POST request to "https://example.com" with two key-value pairs in the data. We have set the "verify" parameter to False to ignore SSL verification.

Another way to achieve the same result is by using the "Session" object in Requests.

Example:


import requests

session = requests.Session()
session.verify = False

response = session.post('https://example.com', data={'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'})

print(response.text)

In this example, we are creating a new "Session" object and setting the "verify" attribute to False. We then use this session object to make a POST request, similar to the previous example.

It is important to note that ignoring SSL verification can be a security risk and should only be done if absolutely necessary. Always use caution when making requests to unknown or untrusted servers.
