Upload Custom Playlist Cover with Python

My Question or Issue

Hi! I'm having trouble with uploading custom image to playlist cover. Here's my code:

def add_playlist_cover(playlist_id, token):
    with open('cover.jpg', 'rb') as f:
        data = base64.b64encode(f.read())
        auth_header = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}", 'Content-Type':'image/jpeg'}
        url = f'https://api.spotify.com/v1/playlists/{playlist_id}/images'
        r = requests.put(url, headers=auth_header, data=data)
        print(r.json())

I've tried Content-Type as image/jpeg and as application/json and still got an error requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.spotify.com', port=443)

Can someone help me out? Thanks in advance

You can add `verify=False` inside the `requests.put()` and try if that works.

Did you ensure that the image is less than or equal to 256kb in size?
