I have been struggling with this problem for a while now and have scoured the internet but am still unable to solve it.
I am trying to run a python script to access a google sheet from my local machine at work (so may be firewall issues). Whenever I am connected on a guest network the script works fine. Whenever I try to use my work internal network (with or without proxy settings) I get the following error:
***Traceback (most recent call last):

After some research I get the impression that it is due to my proxy settings but I cant figure out what I need to do to fix it. I also understand that the python library socks may help but once again I'm stumped
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance
