Example API Request

Projects Programming

Hi,

I've been resisting from asking on here, but seems after all my attempts of trying to find what I'm looking for keep hitting dead ends.

What I'm looking for is an example code which I can understand and work from for requesting data from an API and parse the data.

The examples I've found only seem to cover http requests and parsing data that you load at the beginning of the code. Plus the codes for parsing json seem to be all to do with json 5 and not 6.

I've got up to the point where I can make a connection via https and using a fingerprint no problem, but its the code or examples of the code in parsing the json after you retrieve it.

I'm sorry to be a complete noob but its virtually doing my head in from hitting dead ends. If someone can just point me in the direction of an example which is up to date.

I'd be grateful of the help.

How gnarly is the JSON you get from the API? Using a library may be overkill if it's simple as you can just parse it by hand using strtok and the like.

Using the json assistant:

Total (recommended) 4096

There’s a lot of information but I would like to filter it out in the end as I’m only going to need a few parts.

It’s from an adult site that I’m pulling the data from which is why I haven’t posted what the content is.
