Hello! I am running a script, and it comes up with an error. What can I do to make the error be corrected? I am thinking it is something with the data, possibly. I have only had Python for a few days, so maybe I copied some codes wrong. Also, does Python have a way to save files downloaded from web sites?
Thanks, Ken The error is on this line: data = response.json() Here is the script: #Need to install requests package for python #easy_install requests import requests # Set the request parameters url = 'https://website /file' # Eg. User name="admin", Password="admin" for this code sample. user = 'admim' pwd = 'admin' # Set proper headers #headers = {"Content-Type":"application/xml","Accept":"*/*"} # Do the HTTP request response = requests.get(url, auth=(user, pwd)) #, headers=headers ) print('Encoding:', response.encoding) print('headers:', response.headers) # Check for HTTP codes other than 200 if response.status_code != 200: print('Status:', response.status_code, 'Headers:', response.headers, 'Error Response:',response.json()) exit() # Decode the JSON response into a dictionary and use the data data = response.json() print(data) Here is the error: Encoding: UTF-8 Traceback (most recent call last): File "I:/CernerProcesses/ServiceNow/new0628.py", line 31, in <module> data = response.json() File "C:\Program Files\Python36\lib\site-packages\requests-2.18.1-py3.6.egg\requests\models.py", line 894, in json return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs) File "C:\Program Files\Python36\lib\json\__init__.py", line 354, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "C:\Program Files\Python36\lib\json\decoder.py", line 339, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "C:\Program Files\Python36\lib\json\decoder.py", line 357, in raw_decode raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) Ken Lewis Trinity Health I.T.
