Python 3.9 – reading google sheets file using pandas results in traceback error

Question

I'm trying to read data from a publicly available google spreadsheet using pandas.

I've been following this tutorial, yet after running my code:

#!/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin/python3
import pandas as pd

#  Import data from Google Sheets


sheet_id = "1ierEhD6gcq51HAm433knjnVwey4ZE5DCnu1bW7PRG3E"

df = pd.read_csv(f"https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/{sheet_id}/export?forat=csv")

print(df)

I'm getting these traceback errors:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/urllib/request.py", line 1342, in do_open h.request(req.get_method(), req.selector, req.data, headers, File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 1255, in request self._send_request(method, url, body, headers, encode_chunked) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 1301, in _send_request self.endheaders(body, encode_chunked=encode_chunked) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 1250, in endheaders self._send_output(message_body, encode_chunked=encode_chunked) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 1010, in _send_output self.send(msg) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 950, in send self.connect() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/http/client.py", line 1424, in connect self.sock = self._context.wrap_socket(self.sock, File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/ssl.py", line 500, in wrap_socket return self.sslsocket_class._create( File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/ssl.py", line 1040, in _create self.do_handshake() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/ssl.py", line 1309, in do_handshake self._sslobj.do_handshake() ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1123)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Could someone please help me?

EDIT: @Code-Apprentice's answear partially fixed my issue, now I'm only getting these errors:

Does this answer your question? [certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52805115/certificate-verify-failed-unable-to-get-local-issuer-certificate) — Code-Apprentice, Jan 26 '21 at 20:56
@Code-Apprentice partially, most of the errors are gone, but not all of them. I'll add an edit to my post. — wbrydak, Jan 26 '21 at 21:01
For future reference, you should accept the linked question when it solves your current error then post a new question about the new error instead of editing your question to completely replace the original error message. This helps to build a library that other people can find in the future to help solve similar problems. — Code-Apprentice, Jan 27 '21 at 05:41

You have a typo in the parameter, forat instead of format. While I'm not sure that's the issue, that's probably not good.
