Is this a dead codebase? Getting nothing but 504 from the remote service

[carnak]

Code base seems very stale, and doesn't work -

When running example notebook cell - pulses = otx.getall()

Returns:

ResponseError: too many 504 error responses

I haven't worked for the company for many years so I don't have any inside information, but I used to be the lead developer on OTX. At the time, the company got bought by AT&T, joining their cyber security division, and then sold off to LevelBlue. I don't know the current status of the project at all, but even when I worked there, it was not the "primary" thing our company did, it was a side thing we provided as a service. It costs quite a bit and doesn't make any money so it may not be the highest priority.

Note that this repo and the actual OTX backend are 2 very different things - this is just an SDK to connect to the backend. So this repo not having any updates isn't necessarily evidence that the project is dead.

Before I left I made some additions to the SDK that made getall() more efficient - by keeping an index of all the pulses you already have. It's fairly easy to change SDK calls to use this method, if you're curious I can point you at some examples. getall(), depending in your subscriptions, could be trying to pull in a LOT of stuff, also, so it may help a lot to limit it by time, or to keep your subscriptions pruned to stuff you actually want.
