error: dict object not callable when printing the request

[bjganther]

I'm having issues getting the search results. I want to take the results and print them onto an HTML file. I used request to get the JSON reponse, and that worked. But now I don't know what to do with the JSON object. I've tried:

resp = requests.get(MyUrl) data = json.loads(resp.text) idk = IterJson(data)

def IterJson(place): x = [place['name'], place['reference'], place['geometry']['location']['lat'], place['geometry']['location']['lng'], place['vicinity']] return x

But I keep getting that 'name' in the def IterJson(place) is an error.

I checked the documentation at https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search And in the middle of the document, under "Search Responses," is the source code for the JSON object.

I've copied it below. "name" is under "results". How can I access "name"?

@bjganther This is not an issue due to the package but a skill problem on your side. This is a simple json parsing. The json returned contains the results array with multiple places inside. So you have to get results from data and you'll have the list of places. Your iter function doesn't iter on anything by the way. Here some link to help you
