Hi everyone, I am pretty new with plaid, and I have issues retrieving my Account Balance.
After having looked at the documentation in this repository, this is the code I am using:
import plaid
from plaid.api import plaid_api
from plaid.model.accounts_balance_get_request import AccountsBalanceGetRequest
configuration = plaid.Configuration(
host=plaid.Environment.Sandbox,
api_key={
'clientId': client_id,
'secret': secret,
'environment': environment,
}
)
api_client = plaid.ApiClient(configuration)
client = plaid_api.PlaidApi(api_client)
balance_request = AccountsBalanceGetRequest(
access_token=access_token,
)
balance_response = client.accounts_balance_get(balance_request)
However, at this stage I get this error message:
TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)
/usr/local/bin/kernel-launchers/python/scripts/launch_ipykernel.py in <module>
20 )

TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object
The problem is, I have the suspicious this is due to either the access_token or the secret not being valid any more.
Could you please tell me if otherwise there is a mistake in my code? Thank you very much

Compare your object to the sample configuration object in the readme:
configuration = plaid.Configuration(
host=plaid.Environment.Sandbox,
api_key={
'clientId': client_id,
'secret': secret,
}
)
It doesn't appear to be constructed in the same way.
If you are having trouble constructing the object I'd recommend beginning with the quickstart code at https://github.com/plaid/quickstart which should give you a working starting point.

Thank you very much Phoenix. Before using the configuration of my first message I had also tried the one you have mentioned, but the outcome is the same unfortunately. At this point, one hypothesis I have is that the token and the secret are not valid any more, but I wonder whether the error message I receive is the typical one for such cases,
phoenixy1 commented
@Cesco85 you should test whether the token and secret are valid using API calls. If you're having trouble using the client libraries for this, one way to do it is via the Postman collection: https://github.com/plaid/plaid-postman

Closing this issue out as it doesn't appear to be an issue with the client library. If you end up still needing help, feel free to file a support ticket via the dashboard.
