Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

where is the requests documentation regarding field metadata? trying to understand how you got to this "json" key

[hazy kestrel]

Huh, I've never seen field metadata used before in dataclasses. Where did you find info that this has an effect?

(and yeah, I'd use pydantic for that. If you really don't want to do so, perhaps rename the keys manually before unpacking them?)

[hazy kestrel]

it's a normal thing to do; internally it does some encoding guessing and then the equivalent of json.loads(response.text): https://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/api/#requests.Response.json
nevermind, completely misread your message.

[wheat chasm]

you can probably do something like that fairly simple with a classmethod
