Question #: 100
Topic #: 1
[All 350-901 Questions]

{'lat': 37.4180951010362, 'lng': -122.098531723022, 'address': '', 'serial': 'Q2HP-F5K5-F98Q',
'mac': '88:15:44:ea:f5:bf', 'lanIp': '10.10.10.15',
'url': 'https://n149.meraki.com/DevNet-Sandbox/n/EFZDavc/manage/nodes/new_list/78214561218351',
'model': 'MS220-8P', 'switchProfileId': None, 'firmware': 'switch-11-31', 'floorPlanId': None}
Refer to the exhibit. A developer needs to find the geographical coordinates of a device on the network L_397561557481105433 using a Python script to query the Meraki API. After running response = requests.get() against the Meraki API, the value of response.text is shown in the exhibit.
What Python code is needed to retrieve the longitude and latitude coordinates of the device?

  • A. latitude = response.text['lat'] longitude = response.text['lng']
  • B. latitude = response.json()['lat'] longitude = response.json()['lng']
  • C. latitude = response.json()[0] longitude = response.json()[1]
  • D. latitude = response.text[0] longitude = response.text[1]

Dude, response.json()['lat'] does not exist, this is an invalid call. Instead, A, has a proper call for a dictionary using the index or key.

I would like to take my words back. The correct answer as suggested is B. Please review the following example: >>> import requests >>> response = requests.get('https://api.github.com') >>> print(response) <Response [200]> >>> print(response.json()) {'current_user_url': 'https://api.github.com/user', snip... >>> print(response.json()['current_user_url']) https://api.github.com/user >>> print(response.text['current_user_url']) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: string indices must be integers >>> print(response.json()[0]) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> KeyError: 0

the 'text' property of a Response object returs the dictionary as a string, but it is NOT the dictionary itself. >>> import requests >>> publicapi = requests.get(url="https://api.publicapis.org/entries") >>> publicapi.text '{"count":1418,"entries":[{"API":"AdoptAPet","Description":"Resource to help get pets adopted","Auth":"apiKey" (...) ' >>> type(publicapi.text) <class 'str'> >>> type(publicapi.json()) <class 'dict'>

Selected Answer: A
The response.json() method will return the JSON object that was returned by the Meraki API. The 'lat' and 'lng' properties of the JSON object contain the latitude and longitude coordinates of the device.

json() used to read the JSON response. No list in the exhibit so [0] invalid in C

Answer is B. You can't parse a String. You must convert the response into a dictionary first.

Agree with __al__, the answer is B. The text method returns text and not a dictionary. What you see there is a JSON string and not a dict.

A is correct. Just a simple Python question. >>> coordinates = {'lat': 37.4180951010362, 'lng': -122.098531723022, 'address': '', 'serial': 'Q2HP-F5K5-F98Q','mac': '88:15:44:ea:f5:bf', 'lanIp': '10.10.10.15','url': 'https://n149.meraki.com/DevNet-Sandbox/n/EFZDavc/manage/nodes/new_list/78214561218351','model': 'MS220-8P', 'switchProfileId': None, 'firmware': 'switch-11-31', 'floorPlanId': None} >>> latitude = coordinates['lat'] >>> print (latitude) 37.4180951010362 >>> longitude = coordinates['lng'] >>> print (longitude) -122.098531723022

You are assuming that because the output is dictionary-like, then it is a dictionary. And in this case, you are very much wrong. As the name implies, the .text property indeed is a text... a string. See my full comment

A is correct: response.text is clearly a Python dict, it can be queried as such

Wrong. Response.text is a string representation of a python dictionary. The python dictionary itself is accessible via response.json()
