import requests
import json

input = input(" put you data here: ")
url = "https://breachdirectory.p.rapidapi.com/"

querystring = {"func":"auto","term":input}

headers = {
    'x-rapidapi-host': "breachdirectory.p.rapidapi.com",
    'x-rapidapi-key': "cdc2ac9cf2msh13a3dv713de3c61p1185f5jsncd225a72c5e1"
