Edit: For post request:

import requests
import json
url = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/"

payload = {
    "userId": 10,
    "id": 901,
    "title": "sunt aut facere repellat provident occaecati excepturi optio reprehenderit",
    "body": "quia et suscipit\nsuscipit recusandae consequuntur expedita et cum\nreprehenderit molestiae ut ut quas totam\nnostrum rerum est autem sunt rem eveniet architecto"
 }
headers = {
    'content-type': "application/json",
    'cache-control': "no-cache",
    'postman-token': "c71c65a6-07f4-a2a4-a6f8-dca3fd706a7a"
    }

response = requests.request("POST", url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)

print(type(response.json()))

class 'dict'

You can use something like this:

import requests

url = "https://api.icndb.com/jokes/random"

headers = {
    'cache-control': "no-cache",
    'postman-token': "77047c8b-caed-2b2c-ab33-dbddf52a7a9f"
    }

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers)

print(type(response.json()))

class 'dict'

import json

response_data = json.loads(response.text)
result = response_data.get('result')

you need to deserialize response.text to have it as dict and then user .get with respective key. result is a key in above example. and response was the response of a url call.
