title: Converting a JSON Dictionary (currently a String) to a Pandas Dataframe
body: <p>I am using Python's request library to retrieve data from a web API. When viewing my data using <code>requests.text</code>, it returns a string of a large JSON object, e.g.,</p>
  <pre><code>'{&quot;Pennsylvania&quot;: {&quot;Sales&quot;: [{&quot;date&quot;:&quot;2021-12-01&quot;, &quot;id&quot;: &quot;Metric67&quot;, ... '
  </code></pre>
  <p>Naturally, the type of this object is currently a string. What is the best way to cover this string/JSON to a Pandas Dataframe?</p>
