Trippinin api Keyerror

Question

I need som help to get started with this trippinin api, if you have worked with this api it would be very nice of you to just help me here to get started! I dont understand what I should write in for dayin data[....]:

import requests
import json

r = requests.get("http://api.v1.trippinin.com/City/London/Eat?day=monday&time=morning&limit=10& offset=2&KEY=58ffb98334528b72937ce3390c0de2b7")
data = r.json()

for day in data['city Name']:
    print (day['city Name']['weekday'] + ":")

The error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Nux\Desktop\Kurs3\test.py", line 7, in <module>
    for day in data['city Name']:
KeyError: 'city Name'

Answer 1

The error KeyError: 'X' means you are trying to access the key X in a dictionary, but it doesn't exist. In your case you're trying to access data['city Name']. Apparently, the information in data does not have the key city Name. That means either a) you aren't getting any data back, or b) the data isn't in the format you expected. In both cases you can validate (or invalidate) your assumptions by printing out the value of data.

To help debug this issue, add the following immediately after you assign a value to data:

print(data)
