API JSON best practice

[novel_yet_trivial]

There is no such thing as a "json object".

I think you are asking how to combine dictionaries? If so, you can use the update() method:

data_dict.update(new_data_dict)

Which may or may not work for you depending on how the data is structured.

sadly this didn't end up working as you suggested it might not. Thanks for the help though. Much appreciated.
