How can I integrate APIs for data retrieval in my application?

Integrating APIs involves using HTTP requests to fetch data from external services. What specific data are you looking to retrieve?

I'm looking to pull weather data from a public API.

You can use APIs like OpenWeatherMap. You'll need to sign up for an API key and then make GET requests to their endpoints.

Can you show me an example of a GET request in Python?

Sure! Here's a simple example using the requests library:

import requests

api_key = 'your_api_key'
url = f'http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=London&appid={api_key}'
response = requests.get(url)
print(response.json())
