Need account for SDK

[Zomboy4313]

I want to use the SDK but I need to input Anki Account credentials, and I believe I don't have an account. so what am i meant to do, get someone else's account?

Describe how wire-pod is set up. What is it running on? What device are you trying to set the SDK up on? What SDK are you using (there are multiple)?

[Zomboy4313]

I'm using the native Windows version of Wire-Pod, and I'm trying to install Cyb3rdog's version of the SDK with python 3.8

I'm trying to use the python SDK on Raspberry pi and have the same problem:

***Anki Vector Python SDK Setup***

Vector requires all requests be authorized by an authenticated Anki user.

This script will enable this device to authenticate with your Vector
robot for use with a Vector Python SDK program.

Vector must be powered on and connected on the same network as your
computer. By running this script, you will be asked to provide your
Anki account credentials, and the script will download an authentication
token and cert that will grant you access to the robot and his
capabilities (such as camera and audio) as well as data stored on the
robot (such as faces and photos).

See the README for more information.

Use of Vector and the Vector SDK is subject to Anki's Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions.

There's some hack here, but I couldn't get at the scp ... host:

Not sure if this is the right place, though... here's the script to create the guid when you have the certificate (which I couldn't get): https://gist.github.com/randym32/16bde0ce2dda841336e3f9a250cca009

I should mention all errors I had were fixed by downloading WirePod Vector SDK
