I am an absolute beginner and I am trying to connect to Aura with python , I had luck with sandbox and desktop with bolt://. But i am keep failing with Aura. Any help on connecting to Aura with python(py2neo) would be really appreciated.

This is what I tied.

graph = Graph("neo4j+s://5b5d64a9.databases.neo4j.io:7687", auth=("neo4j", "password****"),routing=True)

Hello krishwera, I tested here with my aura instance:

Using py2neo version 2021.1.5

from py2neo import Graph

graph = Graph("neo4j+s://231234.databases.neo4j.io", auth=("neo4j", "PASSWORD"), routing=True)
print(graph.run("MATCH (n) RETURN n"))

It worked without a problem.
Are you sure the password you have is correct?
