wcapi.get('orders') returns 403

I connect to my WooCommerce webshop through the WooCommerce REST API Python wrapper,

I.e,

from woocommerce import API

wcapi = API(
    url="https://mywebshop.whatever",
    consumer_key="ck_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    consumer_secret="cs_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    wp_api=True,
    version="wc/v1"
)

API has read/write access.

All worked fine for months up to yesterday.

Problem

Since yesterday latest_order = wcapi.get('orders').json() returns a JSONDecodeError: Expecting value. Also, wcapi.get('orders') returns a <Response [403]>.

I don’t know what’s causing this all of a sudden and I’m not sure how to solve it either.

When specifying the user_agent, the request goes through:

def testWCAPI():
    wcApi = API(
        url="https://www.XXX.org/",
        consumer_key=config("WOOCOMMERCE_KEY"),
        consumer_secret=config("WOOCOMMERCE_SECRET"),
        wp_api=True,
        version="wc/v3",
        user_agent="XXX.org"
    )
    orders = wcApi.get("orders").json()
    print(orders)

This got fixed by https://github.com/woocommerce/wc-api-python/pull/57, thanks @Evert-Arends for your help. Note that I’ll release 3.0 soon, we’ll drop support to unsupported Python releases. The older releases of this lib seems to be still working with Python 2.7 in my tests.
