I can't get the url using json python

October 23, 2022

I’m trying to get the url of the minecraft skin through the api using python programming but I can’t get the url, let’s see if someone could

This is the code I’m currently using…

    import json
    import requests
    import base64
    
    
    
    
response = requests.get(f"https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/11f1cc006cc84499a174bc9b7fa1982a")
    id = response.json()["properties"][0]["value"]
    
    ####
    msg = f"{id}"
    msg_bytes = msg.encode('ascii')
    base64_bytes = base64.b64decode(msg_bytes)
    base64_msg = base64_bytes.decode('ascii')
    
    
    
    
    print(base64_msg)

Thank you very much in advance!

>Solution :

You will have to convert the string to json first.

import requests
import base64
import json

response = requests.get(
    f"https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/11f1cc006cc84499a174bc9b7fa1982a"
)
msg = response.json()["properties"][0]["value"]


base64_bytes = base64.b64decode(msg)

print(json.loads(base64_bytes)["textures"]["SKIN"]["url"])
