Cannot export report

Hi there, I cannot seem to export a report using python3. I believe I have followed all the correct steps.

• Note that and are fill ins.
• I have tried calling the template as another .ftl file and storing the template as a string in the same script (below).
• I am using the python requests module (is this possible?)
• Do I need python to perform the curl on a command line?
• I have used curl on the command line with the same template and it works fine
• How do you insert the template call using python requests module
• I have tried stringifying 'requestJobDescription={...}' --data-urlencode 'template@my_template.ftl' as is shown in your API doc
• I have tried using requests.post (which is the only one that should work) and requests.get (just for kicks)
  ** I get HTTP 404 whenever I run with post
  ** I get HTTP 400 whenever I run with get (b/c you can't use get)

Below is my simplified code (.py files cannot be attached). Any help getting this to work would be great.
