I'm getting an exception from python with the following code:

# authorization code goes before this, etc. Note that fb = fitbit
reccurance = ['MONDAY','TUESDAY','WEDNESDAY','THURSDAY','FRIDAY','SATURDAY','SUNDAY']
device_id = '123456789' # In the actual program this is a real device ID
fb.add_alarm(device_id, alarm_time, reccurance, recurring=False, enabled=True, label='Find Device Alarm', snooze_length=None, snooze_count=None, vibe='DEFAULT')

I've checked datetime formats and everything, but it still gives me the following output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "PATH\TO\MY\PROGRAM\main.py", line 29, in <module>
    fb.add_alarm(device_id, alarm_time, reccurance, recurring=False, enabled=True, label='Find Device Alarm', snooze_length=None, snooze_count=None, vibe='DEFAULT')

    exceptions.detect_and_raise_error(response)
  File "C:\Users\somebody\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\fitbit\exceptions.py", line 94, in detect_and_raise_error
    raise HTTPServerError(response)
fitbit.exceptions.HTTPServerError: An error occurred with the Fitbit Web API while processing the request. Error id: A29E0282:7651_A92D91CB:01BB_59D3331F_4A63FA7:3D47

Any help with this? My program is just to set an alarm 20 seconds after the current time.

NB: Other commands like get_devices() and get_alarms() do work.

    You are not including the timezone in your request. Per the code, alarm_time should be a timezone aware datetime object.

    You can do this with another module called pytz.

    import pytz

    tz = pytz.timezone("US/Eastern")
    alarm_time = datetime.datetime(2017, 10, 21, 16, 0)
    alarm_time = tz.localize(alarm_time, is_dst=None)

    reccurance = ['MONDAY','TUESDAY','WEDNESDAY','THURSDAY','FRIDAY','SATURDAY','SUNDAY']
    device_id = '########' # In the actual program this is a real device ID
    client.add_alarm(device_id, alarm_time, reccurance, recurring=False, enabled=True, label='Find Device Alarm', snooze_length=None, snooze_count=None, vibe='DEFAULT')

    {'trackerAlarm': {'alarmId': ##########,
    'deleted': False,
    'enabled': True,
    'label': 'Find Device Alarm',
    'recurring': False,
    'snoozeCount': 1,
    'snoozeLength': 9,
    'syncedToDevice': False,
    'time': '16:00-04:00',
    'vibe': 'DEFAULT',
    'weekDays': []}}
