Using APIs with Python
Python & APIs
With the modules requests
and json
it is easy to get data from APIs with Python.
Using the above introduced methods for sequencing, the following example requests a response from https://www.boredapi.com/:
#!/usr/bin/env python3 import requests import json response = requests.get("https://www.boredapi.com/api/activity") data = response.json() print(json.dumps(data, sort_keys=True, indent=4)) # print(data["activity"])
