print(type(s))
html_content = str(s)
html_content = s.prettify()

Answer 1

You need to use .string and then a regex so you can dump the value to json.loads().

Here's how:

import json
import re

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

final = "https://www.talentigelato.com/products/honey-graham-gelato"
response = requests.get(final, timeout=35)
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, "html.parser")
s = soup.findAll('script', attrs={'type': 'text/javascript'})[17]
data = json.loads(re.search(r"single_product = ({.*})", s.string).group(1))
print(data["productId"])

Output:

186852001461
