I am trying to use an api for the first time, and I need to use the data that was called. When I run my script, I get a <Response [200]> so my code is successful, but how do I view and use the information that was called. Thank you!
CodePudding user response：
If this is how you request the api,
r = requests.get("api")
In this way you'll have a plain text response.
print(r.text)
You can also get json output by doing so
print(r.json())
CodePudding user response：
If you are using requests.
response = requests.get("some url")
response.status_code # get the status code
json_response = response.json() # convert response to json
print(json_response) # you can see dictionary-like structure
print(json_response["arbitrary"]) # you can access data just like normal dictionary
