Why do I get an error when I try a ldap simple request with python

I would like to make a small ldap request but I am facing the following error. I don't see where the problem comes from, is it the request or the connection to the ldap server?

Python 3.6.8 (default, Nov 17 2021, 16:10:06)
[GCC 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-3)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import  ldap
>>> searchFilter = "uid=monutilisateur"
>>> basedn = "ou=People,dc=univ-sarthe,dc=fr"
>>> searchScope = "ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE"
>>> searchAttribute= ['uid']
>>> connection = ldap.initialize('ldaps://ldap.univ-sarthe.fr:636')
>>> connection.set_option(ldap.OPT_REFERRALS, 0)
>>> connection.protocol_version = ldap.VERSION3
>>> connection.simple_bind_s('cn=monusertoconnect,ou=applications,dc=univ-sarthe,dc=fr', 'monusertoconnectpass')
(97, [], 1, [])
>>> ldap_result_id = connection.search_s(basedn, searchScope, searchFilter, searchAttribute)
Traceback (most recent call last):

You've set searchScope as the string

searchScope="ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE"

but this needs to be an integer https://www.python-ldap.org/en/python-ldap-3.3.0/reference/ldap.html#ldap.LDAPObject.search_s

try just

searchScope=ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE
