HttpWebRequest API Documentation

Overview

This document provides an overview of the HttpWebRequest API.

The HttpWebRequest API allows you to create a request to the server to get information about a resource.

Request Methods

There are three main HTTP request methods available:

• GET: Retrieve a specific resource.
• POST: Send data to the server for processing.
• PUT: Update an existing resource.
• DELETE: Remove a resource.

Request Parameters

Here's a breakdown of the key parameters you can use with the HttpWebRequest API:

• Method: The HTTP method to use (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE).
• Path: The URL to which the request will be sent.
• Headers: A dictionary of HTTP headers to include in the request.
• Data: The data to send to the server.
• ContentType: The data type of the request (e.g., 'application/json', 'application/xml').

Example

            import requests
            
            response = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/get")
            print(response.json())
