How to suppress warnings about lack of cert verification in a requests HTTPS call?

Question

I would like to disable the warning about a lack of certificate verification in a HTTPS call using requests.

The question has been asked in the past, leading to answers about disabling a relevant request logging or the urllib3 SSL warning.

This used to work in the past (I remember successfully silencing the warnings) but seems not to work anymore?

I put together the two solutions which worked so far:

Python 3.5.3 (default, Jan 19 2017, 14:11:04)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170124] on linux
>>> import requests
>>> import requests.packages
>>> import urllib3
>>> urllib3.disable_warnings()
>>> requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()
>>> requests.get('https://www.google.com', verify=False)
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/urllib3/connectionpool.py:845: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced-usage.html#ssl-warnings
  InsecureRequestWarning)
<Response [200]>

Is there another (current) solution to silence these warnings?

Answer 1

requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings(InsecureRequestWarning)
urllib3.disable_warnings(urllib3.exceptions.InsecureRequestWarning)

There are two different ways to do this, both of these work. You will have to add this to your imports

from requests.packages.urllib3.exceptions import InsecureRequestWarning

Answer 2

Instead of using
requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()

Use
requests.urllib3.disable_warnings()
