The correct way to access the resource will be dependent on the driver, for example the <A href="https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/pg.html#vector-pg" target="_self">Postgres driver</A> supports a number of different formats for authentication. you may be best served first confirming you can access the data with the command line tools, then switching to using the Python bindings afterward.&nbsp;</P> Sat, 23 Sep 2023 18:22:13 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/ogr-open-on-datasources-with-a-password/m-p/1331761#M68745 ShaunWalbridge 2023-09-23T18:22:13Z
