Hi @chetanph,

A new version of ciscoisesdk v2.4.2 has been released. Could you please test your issue using this latest version and let me know if the problem persists?

If you encounter any issues, feel free to share the details so we can continue investigating.

If there is no response within two weeks, we will assume the issue has been resolved with the new version and proceed to close it.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Thank you, I was able to verify the use of certificates in the SDK.

from ciscoisesdk import IdentityServicesEngineAPI
from ciscoisesdk.exceptions import ApiError

api = IdentityServicesEngineAPI(base_url='https://example-ise.cisco.com', uses_api_gateway=True,
                                client_cert='apiuser-cert.pem', client_key='apiuser-key.pem',
                                debug=True, verify=False,
                                uses_csrf_token=False)

print(api.version_and_patch.get_ise_version_and_patch().response)

Response:

{'OperationResult': {'resultValue': [{'value': '3.4.0.608', 'name': 'version'}, {'value': '3', 'name': 'patch information'}]}}

It'd be good to add this simple version and patch example to the main README. Other examples are really big for a quick test. Version and patch is usually the first API request for testing API access.
