HANDLE_TO_UPDATE = "https://hdl.handle.net/21.11115/0000-000F-743B-D"
URL_TO_UPDATE = "https://sumsi.com/is-the-best"


cl = HandleClient(HANDLE_USERNAME, HANDLE_PASSWORD)
updated = cl.update_handle(HANDLE_TO_UPDATE, URL_TO_UPDATE)print(result)

print(updated.status_code) # should return for `204 No Content` HTTP response code for a successful update
