Why is it that I receive a 401 Error when I attempt to get info from the HOST here?
I'm using my token, shouldn't that give me full access?
HOST = "https://api.surveymonkey.com/v3/surveys"
r= requests.get(HOST, api_token)
r.text
print r
You pass api_token in a wrong way. Read the website document to see how do they pass token is the right way to solve your question.
In ordinary situations we will do something like this:
requests.get(HOST, auth=(user,api_token))
But sometime we can pass token into headers straightly:
requests.get(HOST, headers={'Authorization': "Bearer {}".format(api_token)})
requests.get(HOST, headers={'Authorization': api_token})
Read Python requests library how to pass Authorization header with single token to know more about how to pass token straightly.

Python example is on the right.
