Hi all I'm a bit of a noob at coding with python. I started about a year ago and stopped during lockdown. Got back to it now and decided to build a price bot for a crypto currency. I want to extract data from this website: "https://api.pancakeswap.info/api/tokens" and have that data saved in "priceusd" and "pricebnb"

I hope I explained that well enough.

I would like to extract the data from the website however the code that I have used doesn't seem to be working. It give me a "RAW" error each time.

All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You were just using the wrong keys.

import requests


def get_prices():
    name = ["SeedifyFund"]

    crypto_data = requests.get("https://api.pancakeswap.info/api/tokens").json()["data"]

    data = {}
    for i in crypto_data:
        data[i] = {
            "coin": i,
            "priceusd": crypto_data[i]["price"],
            "pricebnb": crypto_data[i]["price_BNB"],
        }

    return data


if __name__ == "__main__":
    print(get_prices())

Edit:

import requests


def get_prices():
    name = "SeedifyFund"

    crypto_data = requests.get("https://api.pancakeswap.info/api/tokens").json()["data"]

    data = None
    for i in crypto_data:
        current = crypto_data[i]

        if current['name'] == name:
          data = {
              "coin": i,
              "priceusd": current["price"],
              "pricebnb": current["price_BNB"],
          }

    return data
