Working With APIs in Python - Pagination and Data Extraction

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.ค. 2024
  • In this video I will show you how to work with an API using Python to extract data. Using the requests module
    we can request the data in JSON format and then parse it out. Each response comes with some extra info too that
    we can use to work out how many pages we need to request and the total amount of items we should expect to get.
    Working with APIs in Python is a core skill for any developer so hopefully you can use this video as a good learning
    resource and start requesting data from APIs in your own projects!

    Love you man, i saw like 10 videos about APIs request and data pull. All of them with over 1M viewers.. and they all just show how to code the request and not anything else, which is equal to nothing, what a waste of time. This video is simple, concrete, and right to the point. You surely deserve more viewers.

    Great video John, very helpful and thanks for sharing.
    Maybe one suggestion to think over .
    The little pip of your face is in de right hand down corner.
    But most of the output of the terminal is also down under so (and I have noticed in many of your video's) the output is often hidden behind that small screen.
    Maybe it would be better to put it (the PIP) in the top righthand corner.
    Anyways, thanks for the effort of making these video's.
    In the past I had to search in YT for solutions for my questions but now since I found your channel, all the(my) answers are here in one channel.

    in minute 11 when you are building def get_pages(response):
    instead of pages = data ['info']['pages'] you put pages =response ['info']['pages'] .
    You replace data with response.

    why?
