https://github.com/microsoft/AI-For-Beginners/blob/main/lessons/2-Symbolic/MSConceptGraph.ipynb Unable to function properly
I tried running in VS Code environment
https://github.com/microsoft/AI-For-Beginners/blob/main/lessons/2-Symbolic/MSConceptGraph.ipynb The first paragraph of code for:

import urllib
import json
import ssl

def http(x):
    ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context
    response = urllib.request.urlopen(x)
    data = response.read()
    return data.decode('utf-8')

def query(x):
    return json.loads(http("https://concept.research.microsoft.com/api/Concept/ScoreByProb?instance={}&topK=10".format(urllib.parse.quote(x))))

query('microsoft')

But the following error prompt appears:

SSLZeroReturnError Traceback (most recent call last)
File~/. yenv/versions/3.9.7/lib/python3.9/urllib/request. py: 1346, in AbstractHTTPHandler.do_ Open (self, http_class, req, * * http_conn_args)

What went wrong and how should I make the necessary modifications?
Thank you very much to those who can provide help.

Hi @mouseart!

Just tested it myself, I am getting a timeout error as well.

Looking into it, looks like the website we are trying to obtain the JSON from is no longer available. Which would cause the timeout issue we are both seeing.

If there was a URL with the same JSON this one hosted previously we could use that, or if someone can get a copy it could be added to the project itself, I would think.

Sorry this isn't much of a solution, but wanted to clarify it is not an issue on your end at least.

UPDATE
Using "Wayback Machine", we can see the format of the JSON that was expected to be retrieved.

Technically, someone could re-create the JSON data into a local file, add it to the repo and adjust the code to load it, to mimic the results being retrieved. Test that it works correctly and has the expected results.

Thank you for your feedback. I roughly understand.
