HistoricDataRequest in python: "from" parameter is recognized as a keyword instead of keyword-argument

Hello,

I have an issue getting HistoricDataRequest class to work, because the "from" parameter is recognized as a keyword(as in "from x import y") in python and will give "Unexpected expression" error as a result.

Documentation says to use _from as parameter, but that is not what the class expects and will therefore raise a error during runtime that the parameter is missing the "from" argument.

All I have found so far is that the class is generated by https://openapi-generator.tech, has anyone actually used this or got it to work in python? So far I have only seen some few threads regarding this class from people who are also not getting the class to work, with no response...

Documentation: iot-client-py/docs/apis/tags/SeriesV2Api.md at master · arduino/iot-client-py · GitHub

It feels a bit silly that "from" being recognized as a keyword is what would cause the class to not function. It sounds like something the interpreter would manage? Is it an interpreter issue? Currently I use python 3.10.11

Hi @daddethebad. I found a workaround here:

The example code with that adjustment:

    body = HistoricDataRequest(
        **{"from": "1970-01-01T00:00:00.00Z"},
        properties=[
            "properties_example"
        ],
        to="1970-01-01T00:00:00.00Z",
    )
