Get request python as a string

Question

I wanted to send a get request in python and return it as a string. I wanna eventually use that string as something later on. Also by default does python return it in json format?

req = requests.get(server, auth=('user',"pass"))

Answer 1

Use python requests. Check the link, there are examples how you get json from response.

req = requests.get(server, auth=('user',"pass"))
req.json()

If you want it as string, use

req.text
