Adding raster layer from WMTS URL using PyQGIS

Question

I am trying to add a WMTS raster layer in QGIS 3.8 using Python (for my plugin).

I have found this Loading Layers - Raster in the documentation, but I cannot make it work.

I tried this:

QgsRasterLayer(f'url={url}&crs=EPSG:4326&format=image/png&tileMatrixSet=4326&username={name}&password={pwd}', 'some layer name', 'wmts').isValid()

But it returns False.

I see the same question asked a lot on this site, but no answer solves my problem.

How can I deal with this?

The URL works fine when I add the layer through the UI.

• nmtoken: should it not be f'url={url}?crs... or if url has a ? just f'url={url}crs... as per syntax key[=value]&

• Raphael Bahuau: @nmtoken : unfortunaltly he question mark doesn't change the result.

• PolyGeo: Those previous questions all seem to be about WMS and you appear to be asking about WMTS. In any event most if not all of them look like they should be reviewed to see which are duplicates.
