Using github api fetch number of stars overtime of a repository in python

Question

w.r.t to this post: GitHub API: Number of Stars of a Repository Over Time I'm trying to do the same in python, here is the code snippet:

import requests
url = "https://api.github.com/repos/flutter/flutter/stargazers?per_page=1"
repo_response = requests.get(url,headers={'Accept': 'application/vnd.github.v3+json'})
print(repo_response.json())

According to the Git API documentation, I've sent the accept in headers but I still fail to get the "Alternative response with star creation timestamps". The result is that of a default response.

Is there something that I'm missing out here?

I guess you forgot to add something in header (application/vnd.github.v3.star)

repo_response = requests.get(url,headers={'Accept': 'application/vnd.github.v3.star+json'})
