Is Python Requests Built In?

As someone who has been using Python for a while, I can definitively say that Python Requests is not built in. However, Python Requests is a popular third-party library that can easily be installed using pip.

If you're new to Python, you might be wondering what Python Requests is. Python Requests is a library that allows users to send HTTP requests using Python. This makes it easy to communicate with web servers and retrieve data.

Let's take a look at how to install and use Python Requests:


      pip install requests

Once you've installed Python Requests, you can use it in your Python code:


      import requests

      response = requests.get('https://www.example.com')
      print(response.content)

In this example, we import the requests library and send a GET request to the URL 'https://www.example.com'. We then print the content of the response.

While Python Requests is not built in to Python, it is a great library to have in your toolkit if you plan on working with web APIs or web scraping.
