# REST API Caller

Ask an API a question and get back the part you wanted

## What this does

You need something from a web service, and the reply comes back as a wall of JSON with the one thing you wanted buried in it. This calls the API from Python, reads the response, and tells you the useful fields. Reach for it when you want an answer, not a raw dump.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Call an API and show me what came back
- Pull the fields I actually need out of a JSON response
- Check what an endpoint returns

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## Questions

### Is REST API Caller safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of REST API Caller and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit c85e1de2a79c, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/rest-api-caller.
