Requests

The Requests API is responsible for handling HTTP requests. It provides a simple interface for completing HTTP calls with metrics tracking.

Basic Usage

The requests interface is simple, and should be used as a drop-in substitute for the python requests library’s Session object.

For convenience, all you need to get started is the get_session function, which returns an instance of the Session class.

from canvas_core import get_session

session = get_session()

get_resp = session.get("http://...")
post_resp = session.post("http://...", data=...)
