	The Python standard library contains all the tools you'd need to access an API. However, the built-in APIs are very low level. They are good implementations of the HTTP protocol - but they require the user to manage lots of low-level details, like URL redirection, sessions, authentication, and payload encoding. As a "normal browser user" you're probably used to taking these details for granted, as a browser manages these details for you.
	As a result, people have developed third-party libraries that wrap the built-in APIs and provide a simpler API that is a closer match for the everyday browser experience. We're going to use one of those libraries to access the {JSON} Placeholder API - a library called `httpx <https://www.python-httpx.org>`__.
	Let's add a ``httpx`` API call to our app. Add an import to the top of the ``app.py`` to import ``httpx``::
	Then modify the ``say_hello()`` callback so it looks like this::
	This will change the ``say_hello()`` callback so that when it is invoked, it will:
	make a GET request on the JSON placeholder API to obtain post 42;
	decode the response as JSON;
	extract the body of the post; and
	include the body of that post as the text of the dialog.
	Lets run our updated app in Briefcase developer mode to check that our change has worked.
