with MPRester(api_key) as mpr:
    chgcar = mpr.get_charge_density_from_material_id("mp-149")

MPRestError: REST query returned with error status code 403 on URL https://api.materialsproject.org/charge_density/?task_ids=mp-655585&task_ids=mp-1057373&task_ids=mp-1059589&task_ids=mp-1440634&task_ids=mp-1791788&_limit=10&_fields=last_updated%2Ctask_id%2Cfs_id with message:

  "message":"You cannot consume this service"
}

Sort of a bump to Can't access charge density · Issue #631 · materialsproject/api · GitHub

Hi @sgbaird,

as of now, this endpoint is not open to the public yet (but hopefully will be soon). I added your MP account with the gmail address to the group that has permissions to use the endpoint.

best,
Patrick

To clarify; it is open to the public, but via request. We definitely hope for it to be fully public very soon however since the paper for this dataset was just accepted!

FYI the charge density endpoint is now fully public. No need to request access anymore but please use with care. Thanks!
