Hello:
I want to retrieve some carrier transport data from MPCONTRIBS.
But I find I don’t know how to get a MPCONTRIBS_API_KEY from https://contribs-api.materialsproject.org/ .
If I just set client = Client(), there will be an error “OverflowError: timeout value is too large”.
So, How can I solve it?
You can find your API key in the drop down menu in the upper right of the website (Hover over the person icon after login). As for the Overflow error, it sounds like you’re using windows. Which version of the client did you install? 3.8.0 and later should include a fix.
Tanks for your reply, and I have obtain my API key. I have checked that the version of mpcontribs-client I installed is 3.8.3 using Windows. But when I run “client = Client(host = ‘API KEY’)”, I still meet an error about “OverflowError: timeout value is too large”.
Using your API key as host won’t work. Please try client = Client(apikey="YOUR-API-KEY"). The timeout error is likely caused by the client trying to connect to the wrong host.
There is still the mistake about “OverflowError: timeout value is too large” when I run :
from mpcontribs.client import Client
client = Client(apikey=“YOUR-API-KEY”)
Can you run it successfully? Maybe I have to check it again.
The error is as follows:

Thanks for reporting the traceback. I’ll take a second look. Just to confirm: You’re working on a Window machine, in a new conda environment, and with python 3.9? Thanks!
I got a same error on Windows machine, conda environment with python 3.8

OverflowError: timeout value is too large
So pity, I still haven’t solved the problem.
sorry I missed your messages. I have tests in place for the latest windows, and python versions 3.7 / 3.8 / 3.9. They all succeeded for the latest release of mpcontribs-client 3.8.7: dependabot PRs · materialsproject/MPContribs@67bb9a6 · GitHub
Could you try this version in a fresh conda environment (see below) and report back? Also, please make sure to not share your API key here. You can set the environment variable MPCONTRIBS_API_KEY and it should be picked up automatically by Client(). Thanks!
conda create -n mpcontribs-client python=<your-python-version>
conda activate mpcontribs-client
pip install mpcontribs-client
best,
Patrick
For anyone coming upon this thread and looking for a solution to the OverflowError on Windows, please try to install the bravado fork (PR) manually via
pip install "bravado[fido] @ git+https://github.com/tschaume/bravado@9ce06f2df7118e16af4a3d3fdc21ccfeedc5cd50#egg=bravado-11.0.3"
