I have an Azure Maps API call in a Jupyter Notebook that returns a map tile in .png format. The call works great, but I can't figure out how to display it as an image rather than as binary text.

- API Call:

import requests
from ipywidgets import Image

url = "https://atlas.microsoft.com/map/static/png"

querystring = {
    "api-version":"1.0",
    "subscription-key":"<myRedactedAPIkey>",
    "layer":"basic",
    "zoom":"5",
    "center":"-122.3950336,47.566848",
    "height":"600",
    "width":"600",
    "pins":"default||-121.95066667 45.9135|-121.062 46.707",
    "format":"png",
    "path":"ra300||-122.3950336 47.566848"
}

payload = ""
headers = {
    'cache-control': "no-cache"
    }

response = requests.request("GET", url, data=payload, headers=headers, params=querystring)

print(response.text)

Results in:

�PNG

Any advice? Thank you.

EDIT2: Here is the query that works. Thanks for your assistance everyone.

import requests
from IPython.display import Image, display

url = "https://atlas.microsoft.com/map/static/png"
payload = ""
querystring = {
        "api-version":"1.0",
        "subscription-key":"<myApiKeyRedacted>",
        "format":"png",
        "layer":"basic",
        "zoom":"5",
        "center":"-122.3950336,47.566848",
        "height":"600",
        "width":"600",
        "pins":"default||-121.95066667 45.9135|-121.062 46.707",
        "path":"ra300000||-122.3950336 47.566848"
    }
headers = {
    'cache-control': "no-cache"
    }

r = requests.get(url,data=payload, headers=headers, params=querystring, stream=all)

display(Image(r.content))

  • Have you tried using `response.raw` instead of text? (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13137817/how-to-download-image-using-requests). – ac24 Apr 15 '19 at 07:17
  • Adding `response.raw` in lieu of `print(response.text)` results in `` but no .png. – SeaDude Apr 17 '19 at 04:27

Here is what ended up working: Appears a combo of stream=all, Ipython.display and .content did the trick.

import requests
from IPython.display import Image, display

url = "https://atlas.microsoft.com/map/static/png"
payload = ""
querystring = {
        "api-version":"1.0",
        "subscription-key":"<myApiKeyRedacted>",
        "format":"png",
        "layer":"basic",
        "zoom":"5",
        "center":"-122.3950336,47.566848",
        "height":"600",
        "width":"600",
        "pins":"default||-121.95066667 45.9135|-121.062 46.707",
        "path":"ra300000||-122.3950336 47.566848"
    }
headers = {
    'cache-control': "no-cache"
    }

r = requests.get(url,data=payload, headers=headers, params=querystring, stream=all)

display(Image(r.content))

Since response.text seems to be a valid PNG image and you are using ipywidgets Image, did you try to use this?

widgets.Image(
    value=response.text,
    format='png',
    width=300,
    height=400,
)
