JSONDecodeError while executing a search

[fbaldi6]

Hello, I have been unable to use the API to perform searches since yesterday. Every time I get the same error: requests.exceptions.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 5 column 1 (char 4)

Below is the test code I tried to use, taken directly from the API documentation.

rr = rocketreach.Gateway(api_key='{API_KEY}')
s = rr.person.search().filter(current_employer='Acme', current_title='CEO')
result = s.execute()
for person in result.people:
    print(person)

And below is the traceback of the exception that is thrown.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/user/PycharmProjects/CRM_lambda/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 971, in json
    return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs)

    return _default_decoder.decode(s)

    raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 5 column 1 (char 4)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    result = s.execute()

    raise RequestsJSONDecodeError(e.msg, e.doc, e.pos)
requests.exceptions.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 5 column 1 (char 4)

The version I have of rocketreach is 2.1.3 and the version of Python is 3.7.2.

Does anyone know why this problem occurs and how to solve it? Thank you

Can you post

$ pip freeze

This might be due to the version of requests package being incompatbile.
