title: Problem converting cURL command to python request
body: <p>I'm trying to convert this cURL command into a python request </p>
  
  <pre><code>curl --max-time 300 --data-binary '{"method": "SEED.compare_regions_for_peg", "params": ["fig|218493.5.peg.961", 5000, 20, "pgfam", "representative+reference"], "id": 1}' https://p3.theseed.org/services/compare\_region
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i've tried using <a href="https://curl.trillworks.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://curl.trillworks.com/</a> which returns this code </p>
  
  <pre><code>import requests
  data = '{"method": "SEED.compare_regions_for_peg", "params": ["fig|218493.5.peg.961", 5000, 20, "pgfam", "representative+reference"], "id": 1}'
  response = requests.post('https://p3.theseed.org/services/compare/_region', data=data)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but the command <code>print(response.status_code)</code> returns 404</p>
  
  <p>Can someone help me identify the problem, as i need to run the same command about 120 000 times with  "fig|218493.5.peg.961" as a variable </p>
