Print response JSON from server with HTTP POST

Question

How can I get respon JSON dictionaries from server with POST:

import json
import requests

url = 'http://apiurl.com'        
parameters = {'code':1,
              'user': 'username',
              'password': 'password'
              }

headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'} 
response = requests.post(url, data = json.dumps(parameters),headers=headers)
print(response)

output: Response [200]

@BarryVassyah - it is print(response.text) and not print(response.txt). Please check the spelling.

Have you tried response.text ? It seems you have miscoded it as response.txt.

Since, you are going to receive a JSON object you can simply use request's built-in JSON decoder Simply do:

j = response.json()

@BarryVassyah - I guess, you'll face an issue converting response.text to a parse-able JSON object. Let me know if you face an issue.
