Parse POST HTTP response using Python

Question

i want to parse a POST HTTP response using python.

My response looks like:

{
  "Result": 0,
  "ResponseStatus": {
    "ErrorCode": null,
    "Message": null,
    "StackTrace": null,
    "Errors": null
  },
  "SessionId": "68ebcd6f-0aef-420d-a12b-c953f8df8ed1",
  "ResponseHeader": {
    "Succeeded": true,
    "Errors": []
  }
}

I want to parse the - "SessionID" to a 2nd http request. How can i achieve it? Thanks !

Answer 1

import json 
response = '{"Result": 0, "ResponseStatus": { "ErrorCode": null,"Message": null, "StackTrace": null, "Errors": null },"SessionId": "68ebcd6f-0aef-420d-a12b-c953f8df8ed1", "ResponseHeader": { "Succeeded": true, "Errors": [] } }'
json_response = json.loads(response)
print json_response['SessionId']

I guess you are using urllib, I recommend using requests
