AttributeError: ‘str’ object has no attribute ‘isoformat’. Did you mean: ‘format’?
what could be the problem?

cert_tools has received very little attention in the past years and may not be the most reliable library offered by blockcerts.

As it seems, there is a python error where the type of the value does not have the isoformat method (since it seems it is a string).
