I want data returned in JSON format instead of XML in the following code, where headers is the key to the API. requests.get(translateUrl,headers=headers) gives XML.

Call to Microsoft Translator Service

headers = {"Authorization ": finalToken}
translateUrl = "http://api.microsofttranslator.com/v2/Http.svc/Translate?text={}&to={}".format(textToTranslate, toLangCode)

translationData = requests.get(translateUrl, headers = headers)

# parse xml return values
translation = ElementTree.fromstring(translationData.text.encode('utf-8'))

# display translation
print (translation.text)

There is an existing feature request for this.

For now you will have to convert it on the client side. Here is where you might additional info.
