Encoding Requests response - Python

Question

I can't figure out why I'm not getting the letters æøå from my response. ø = \Ø The documentation on the api says utf-8 and I've checked that r.encoding is utf-8

header = {'Client-Identifier': 'test'}
r = requests.get(url='https://gbfs.urbansharing.com/oslobysykkel.no/station_information.json'

Answer 1

you can use request.json, response is basically in json.

header = {'Client-Identifier': 'test'}
r = requests.get(url='https://gbfs.urbansharing.com/oslobysykkel.no/station_information.json')
print(r.json())
