Get json content from a URL

Get json content from a URL

Usage

get_json(url)

Arguments

url

A string containing a valid URL to pull the data from the data warehouse.

Value

A data frame.

Details

Get information stored on the web in .json format using a URL. The content is first pulled from the web as text with UTF-8 encoding. Then the text is passed to jsonlite::fromJSON(). This workflow ensures that the URL is not mistaken for a file name rather than web content.
