Learn Python Requests

Send a simple get request with Python requests to a target URL, inspect headers and the absence of a response, and learn when to read a response from the service.

Learn how to use the five common http request methods—get, post, delete, put, and patch—to retrieve, add, or modify information, and read api documentation for each use case.

Send json data with requests via the json parameter, using a name and job payload to the /api/users endpoint, post the request, and view the created id in the response.

Learn to handle exceptions in Python requests by using raise for status for HTTPError on 4xx/5xx responses, catch connection errors with try/except, and prepare for timeouts shown later.

Learn to build a Python app with requests that queries a country API and returns population, languages, or time zones based on user input.
