I have an account on the USGS and when I try to create an API instance using this code

from landsatxplore.api import API
import os

# Your USGS  credentials
username = '<username>'
password = '<password>'

# Initialize a new API instance
api = API(username, password)

# Perform a request
response = api.request(endpoint="dataset-catalogs")
print(response)

I get this error message:

landsatxplore.errors.USGSError: NOT_FOUND: Invalid Endpoint.

Python version: 3.10

landsatxplore version: 0.15.0

If you're talking about this landsatxplore package, it is no longer maintained and notably the new way to login to the API via token is not supported, so the package broke in February 2025:
