You can use a workflow and task results to do that. This link has some additional context for that: Task Results — Morpheus Docs documentation.

Just make sure you are only outputting what you want to be read in the next task and it is in the proper format (ie. JSON)

Just to add onto the original question, python tasks run in a fresh virtual environment, so you need to put any additional packages into the tasks options to make sure they are installed when you run the task.

Hi @Paul_B,

Here is an example I created similar to your code:

import requests
api_url = "https://catfact.ninja/facts"
response = requests.get(api_url)
print(response.json())

This is the resulting data output:

Here is the configuration of the task I made:

You should see the results in the output in Morpheus, otherwise, the data will most likely not be available to the results variable.

Hope that helps!

Are you defining your Additional packages on the task?
