I’m new to Knime so apologies in advance if this question has been posted in other threads (I haven’t been able to find it hence posting a new one here). I’m trying to connect LIWC to KNIME so I can conduct sentiment analysis for my tweets. I guess in short, I have an API for LIWC, but I’m not sure how to utilise it in Knime. I’ve tried the GET Request node, but haven’t been successful. I’ve also tried to include the URL in various formats provided by LIWC in the URL box e.g.
The GET/POST-Requests can sometimes indeed be a bit tedious to get correctly, and I recommend the software postman to get the request right - it just offers a more immediate feedback of what’s going on. Once that’s working, you can put the request into the settings of the GET/POST Request Node (possibly including headers for authorization) and process the data further.
Alternatively, you can try single line requests like your
in the browser - for me, I get the response {"code":1410,"message":"Missing Authorization header."}{"pong":"Hello there, World!"}, as I’m obviously missing the authorization.
