Have been using the Streaming API for a short while using the python requests library.

` params = { 'timepoint': int(datetime.datetime(2020, 2, 17).timestamp()) } url = 'https://stream.companieshouse.gov.uk/companies' response = requests.get(url, auth=(KEY,'') params=params) print(response.status_code) print(response.content)`

when i make when make a malformed request i get 400,/401 as would be expected. However, when i supply the correct key, my status code does not print, my code hangs.

Am i misunderstanding the underlying basics of the long running http request or do i need to change something

any help would be much appreciated

Have you managed to use our streaming API service or do you still require help?
