Python requests.get does not take field names for data

Question

I need to generate data using the below url via requests.get :

fields = ("")
response_2 = requests.get(BASEURL + 'services/v17.0/report-jobs/' + jobId + "?fields=" +fields , 
headers = header_param)

For the purpose of the question, both the BASEURL and the JobID are pre defined. However, there are several field names in the dataset such as Date, [Agent Name], [Agent ID] etc. that I'm looking to generate. When I leave the fields object blank, no data is generated. When I try to define the fields object using

fields = ("Date, Agent Name")

or

fields = ("Date", "Agent Name")

I always get back the error : Invalid fields argument

What is the best way to fix this?

Answer 1

I'm not sure what result you want, but the problem is you're trying to concatenate a string and a tuple, and misusing a tuple.

requests.get(BASEURL + 'services/v17.0/report-jobs/' + jobId + "?fields=".join(str(i) for i in fields)
