# Import the required libraries:
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
import json

# Define the API url and endpoint:
# url = 'http://localhost:8000/milldata'
# endpoint = '/devices/{device_id}/timestamps/'
# url = 'http://localhost:8000/milldata/devices/1/timestamps/'
url = 'http://localhost:8000/milldata/devices/1/'


# Define the credentials:
username = 'testuser1'
password = 'Test4work'
# company_id = '2'
# device_id = '1'


# Define the MillData object to be sent to the API:
milldata = {

# Set the headers for the POST request
headers = {

# Send the POST request to the API url with the MillData object and credentials:
response = requests.post(

    auth=(username, password),

)


# Check the response status code and print the response message:
if response.status_code == 201:
    print('MillData sent successfully.')
else:

# Putting it all together, the code block would look like this:
