Hi, Thanks for your prompt reply. I have tried both the things but I get the same error. With, x = json.loads(p.read()) print x
I get following error: 'HttpResponse' object has no attribute 'read' Also I get same error with, json.dumps(p.read()), and same when I use loads and dumps as load and dump without s. Then, I tried the other option, x = json.dump(p) print x I get the following error: dump() takes at least 2 arguments (1 given) What would be the second argument, I googled on this but find no helpful tips as everything written is too complicated. And with: x = json.load(p) print x 'HttpResponse' object has no attribute 'read' In all the examples, p is the HttpResponse object I get.
