Subscription Issues | Python SDK

The specific issues I am facing in creating subscriptions using Python SDK.
The error I am getting is  TypeError: function takes 3 arguments plus optional tzinfo (8 given). 
My Python version is 3.11

The code is same as the docs:

import os, sys
import imp

from authorizenet import apicontractsv1
from authorizenet.apicontrollers import *
constants = imp.load_source('modulename', 'constants.py')
from decimal import *
from datetime import *

def create_subscription(amount, days):

# Setting the merchant details
merchantAuth = apicontractsv1.merchantAuthenticationType()
merchantAuth.name = constants.apiLoginId
merchantAuth.transactionKey = constants.transactionKey
# Setting payment schedule
paymentschedule = apicontractsv1.paymentScheduleType()
paymentschedule.interval = apicontractsv1.paymentScheduleTypeInterval() #apicontractsv1.CTD_ANON() #modified by krgupta
paymentschedule.interval.length = days
paymentschedule.interval.unit = apicontractsv1.ARBSubscriptionUnitEnum.days
paymentschedule.startDate = datetime(2021, 12, 30)
paymentschedule.totalOccurrences = 12
paymentschedule.trialOccurrences = 1
# Giving the credit card info
creditcard = apicontractsv1.creditCardType()
creditcard.cardNumber = "4111111111111111"
creditcard.expirationDate = "2035-12"
payment = apicontractsv1.paymentType()
payment.creditCard = creditcard
# Setting billing information
billto = apicontractsv1.nameAndAddressType()
billto.firstName = "John"
billto.lastName = "Smith"
# Setting subscription details
subscription = apicontractsv1.ARBSubscriptionType()
subscription.name = "Sample Subscription"
subscription.paymentSchedule = paymentschedule
subscription.amount = amount
subscription.trialAmount = Decimal('0.00')
subscription.billTo = billto
subscription.payment = payment
# Creating the request
request = apicontractsv1.ARBCreateSubscriptionRequest()
request.merchantAuthentication = merchantAuth
request.subscription = subscription
# Creating and executing the controller
controller = ARBCreateSubscriptionController(request)
controller.execute()
# Getting the response
response = controller.getresponse()

if (response.messages.resultCode=="Ok"):
print ("SUCCESS:")
print ("Message Code : %s" % response.messages.message[0]['code'].text)
print ("Message text : %s" % str(response.messages.message[0]['text'].text))
print ("Subscription ID : %s" % response.subscriptionId)
else:
print ("ERROR:")
print ("Message Code : %s" % response.messages.message[0]['code'].text)
print ("Message text : %s" % response.messages.message[0]['text'].text)

return response

if(os.path.basename(__file__) == os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])):
create_subscription(constants.amount, constants.days)



I have set my apiLoginId and transactionKey.
