Getting HTML instead of JSON while using HTTP GET

[BobSquarePants]

Hi everyone,

I was making some request from frontend to https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search
Now I'm trying on the server side with request

but instead of receiving the data back as json, I'm receiving an html page

extract:

 <title>Nominatim Demo</title>

I realized that with requests there is no referee nor user-agent send by default, I have fixed that.

Is that why I'm receiving a webpage ? How long is the exclusion ?

Thanks.

If you want to receive json you have to add format=json (or jsonv2 or geojson or geocodejson) to the URL.
