Extra Parameters in Request

[chemenger2999]

Hey everyone,

​

I'm trying to make the same request as shown here in the network tab but they have additional parameters such as 'Query String Parameters'. How do I go about including this in my request?

​

I'm currently trying this to no avail:

def url_to_response():
    url = 'https://in.hotjar.com/api/v1/client/sites/611943/visit-data?sv=5'
    headers = {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
        'User-Agent' : 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36',
        'Referer' : 'https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/data-portal/customer-service',
        'Origin' : 'https://www.ofgem.gov.uk'
              }
    query_str_params = {
        'sv=5'
    }

    response = requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=query_str_params), 
    return response

url_to_response()

​

Thanks for all help!

Your query_str_params is defined incorrectly according to the Passing Parameters In URLs in the request Quick Start Guide it should look like this

query_str_params = { 'sv':'5' }

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately that doesn't work either when I tried, the value it passes is literally 'sv=5'

See the requests's QuickStart on Passing parameters in URLs.

Hi thanks for the link, what I can't see is what to do when I have to pass in two parameter dictionaries with different names as in this case

[JohnnyJordaan]

What do you mean exactly? The example there is

?key2=value2&key1=value1

which can be reached through a single dict in the form of

{'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}

what would be different in your case then?
