Looking for simplest example to access quickbase using python

#!python3
import requests
import xmltodict
from xml.etree import ElementTree as et
import pprint
pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(indent=2)

# ----------Add your personal stuff here:-----------
yourEmail = 'your@email.here'
yourPassword = 'verygoodpassword'
aTableID = 'xxx5yyyyy'
companyURLPrefix = 'joescookies'

# -------------Authenticate to get a ticket--------------
# one could use a user token here instead.
headers = {
    "Content-Type": "application/xml",
    "Accept-Charset": "utf-8",
    "QUICKBASE-ACTION": "API_Authenticate"
}
# build an XML payload
payload = et.Element('qdbapi')
username = et.SubElement(payload, 'username')
username.text = yourEmail
password = et.SubElement(payload, 'password')
password.text = yourPassword
# hours = et.SubElement(payload, 'hours')  # Optional
# hours.text = '24'  # Optional
# make the payload ready for shipping
humanPayload = et.tostring(payload)
url2 = f'https://{companyURLPrefix}.quickbase.com/db/main'
resp = requests.post(url2, data=humanPayload, headers=headers)
# pp.pprint(vars(resp))
# Parse the response so we can pull out the ticket
parsed = et.XML(resp.text)
authticket = parsed.find('ticket').text

# -----------Using the authticket we can actually do some work--------------
# this example is to get the API_GetDBInfo
url3 = f'https://{companyURLPrefix}.quickbase.com/db/{aTableID}'
headersGetDB = {
    "Content-Type": "application/xml",
    "Accept-Charset": "utf-8",
    "QUICKBASE-ACTION": "API_GetDBInfo"
}
# build another XML payload
payloadGetDB = et.Element('qdbapi')
ticket = et.SubElement(payloadGetDB, 'ticket')
ticket.text = authticket
# make the payload ready for shipping
humanPayloadGetDB = et.tostring(payloadGetDB)
respgetdb = requests.post(url3, data=humanPayloadGetDB, headers=headersGetDB)
# print(et.XML(respgetdb.text).find('errtext').text)  # this checks for the errtext
# pp.pprint(vars(respgetdb))  # this pumps out the full response
# This makes the response a little nicer to sort through
parsedGetDB = et.XML(respgetdb.text)
# This is some of the info enbedded into the XML response.
parsedGetDB.find('dbname').text
parsedGetDB.find('lastModifiedTime').text
parsedGetDB.find('lastRecModTime').text
parsedGetDB.find('createdTime').text
parsedGetDB.find('numRecords').text
parsedGetDB.find('mgrID').text
parsedGetDB.find('mgrName').text
parsedGetDB.find('time_zone').text
parsedGetDB.find('version').text
