Urls are defined in a single variable and will be used in get request as per the user put, please find code below...

Dashboard_name = raw_input("Enter dashboard name from the above list :")
if the user enters Mango get request will take 1st URL and if user enters banana get request will take 2nd url and so on
user_input_from = raw_input("Enter from date and time in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format :")
user_input_to = raw_input("Enter to date and time in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format :")
def user_input_to_epoch_time(user_input):
return int(time.mktime(time.strptime(user_input, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')))
final_url = d.format(user_input_to_epoch_time(user_input_from),
user_input_to_epoch_time(user_input_to))
print(final_url)
results = d.get(Dashboard_name, 'No value in list')
print results
I implemented the code suggested by you, but getting below error as URL is not direct and it is taking as per the user input.
final_url = d.format(user_input_to_epoch_time(user_input_from),
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'format'
