How to get JSON from URL?

The Accept header tells the server that our {{LANG}} client is expecting JSON. The server informs the {{LANG}} client that it has returned JSON with a Content-Type: application/json response header. In this {{LANG}} JSON from URL example, we make a GET request to the ReqBin echo URL to get the JSON. Click Send to run {{LANG}} Get JSON from URL example online and see results.
