To better illustrate its use, you can create some GET and POST examples. A good resource for making
HTTP CALLs is
HTTPS://httpbin.org which is a simple HTTP request and response service. These can be
considered the first REST API CALLs.
Note: The httpbin.org service has been written by the same author than the Requests module.
Examine the GET method. The response content type is set to application/json by default. Keep this
setting so that you can manipulate JSON data.
