The problem is in this line: parsed = json.loads(r)

You’re reciving the json response but insted of feeding json elements to json.loads you’re instead feeding it <Response [200]>

    >>> r = requests.get('http://www.google.com')
    >>> r
    <Response [200]>
    >>> type(r)
    <class 'requests.models.Response'>

(Look closely at the error message. Expected string or buffer Which means you’re providing it something that is NOT string or buffer(an object in this case))
This is the reason why str(r) didn’t work. Because it just converted <Response 200> to '<Response 200>' which obviously is not json.

change this line to parsed = json.loads(r.text).

   >>> type(r.text)
   <type 'unicode'>

and then parsed['objects'][0]['ip'] should give you the IP address 🙂

You are passing a requests object instead of a str object to json.loads(). You need to change

parsed = json.loads(r)

to

parsed = json.loads(r.text)

Also, parsed['objects'] is a list, you need to access its first element & then get the key ip:

>>> print(parsed['objects'][0]['ip'])
