Not able to access content of sharepoint folders using shareplum [Python]

Question

I've asked this question on stackoverflow too, here. But someone told me I'd have better luck on sharepoint stackexchange.

I'm trying to download a few csv files that reside in a document thats part of a sharepoint list. Sharepoint is not on-premise therefore requires O365 Auth.

My code till now:

in[1]: from shareplum import Site
       from shareplum import Office365

       authcookie = Office365('https://my.sharepoint.com', 
       username='username', password='password').GetCookies()
       site = Site('https://my.sharepoint.com/sites/documentLibrary/', 
       authcookie=authcookie)

       sp_list = site.List('listName')
       sp_list.GetListItems('All Documents')

out[1]: [{'Name': 'Folder1',
          'Modified': datetime.datetime(2019, 1, 30, 12, 7, 24),
          'Modified By': 'Jane Doe'},
        {'Name': 'Folder2',
         'Modified': datetime.datetime(2018, 11, 13, 16, 2, 41),
         'Modified By': 'Dane Joe'}]

So I'm able to get folder information about the files present in list by using GetListItems('All Documents').

Folders 1 and 2 are a part of the list. The csv files I want to downloads are in folder 1. I am not able to find a way to list any files from folder 1 and download them.

I've already tried the following:

in[2]: sp_list.GetListItems('Folder 1')
out[2]: KeyError: 'Folder 1'

The documentation isn't very clear, I do not get what the following does or is used for:

sp_data = new_list.GetListItems(fields=['ID', 'Title'])

You may have a try below API to download files in the specified folder:

folder = site.Folder('Shared Documents/This Folder')

To download files:

folder.get_file('source.csv')
