New .cdsapirc file ignored

Software and Tools API
1

Hi,
I used to download data through cdsapi with no problems until I decided to move to beta. After obtaining the new key and user, I substituted the .cdsapirc file, but when I launch the code I get a message that says
2024-09-11 13:51:43,159 WARNING MOVE TO CDS-Beta
2024-09-11 13:51:43,159 INFO Sending request to https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/v2/resources/reanalysis-era5-single-levels

It seems like that despite having updated the credentials to the beta version, the request is automatically pulled to the old server, and the download is extremely slow.

Does anyone else encounter this issue?

hi,
in your .cdspiarc file, did you set the url to point to CDS-Beta?(from the API page at Climate Data Store) ?:

url: https://cds-beta.climate.copernicus.eu/api

Hi Kevin, yes, that’s the url I found on the beta webpage together with my new credentials.

Thanks

Hi Stefano,
Regarding the difficulties you are having migrating to CDS-Beta , can you get in touch with ECMWF Support by raising a ticket on our Support Portal and we will investigate further,
Thanks, Kevin
