python requests library .JSON() error - mHosseinDS86 - Dec-19-2022
Can someone explain this? I'm trying to use python requests library, its attributes and methods. while using .JSON()
method I get this error. How should I fix it and why this error? thanks in advance.
import requests url="https://www.google.com/" response=requests.get(url).text print(response.json())=======================

If you want json, ask for json. You are asking for text.
import requests url="https://www.google.com/" response=requests.get(url) # Leave as a reply print(response.text) # If you want to see text print(response.json()) # If you want to see json

Thanks for the reply. I'm still getting this error.
JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

My guess is response=requests.get(url) failed and response is blank nor None. What happens if your print(response)?

I get this response:
<Response [200]>

You can not get json directly from the google address,have to use there Google Search JSON API
As mention you most look at what you get back.
import requests url ="https://www.google.com/" response = requests.get(url) print(response.content)Which would be a little HTML and lot of JavaScripts.

what is response.text? I don't think www.google.com will download google as a json file
