  • This course will show how one can treat the Internet as a source of data. We will scrape, parse, and read web data as well as access data using web APIs. We will work with HTML, XML, and JSON data formats in Python. This course will cover Chapters 11-13 of the textbook ?Python for Everybody?. To succeed in this course, you should be familiar with the material covered in Chapters 1-10 of the textbook and the first two courses in this specialization.

Other: Web Data with Python is the course which taught me API calls in python using requests module. It also helped me understand how to send data to an application via API calls in all data formats (JSON, XML). It helped me really well when I worked on automating ServiceNow requests through API calls.
