Python json.dumps, Circular Reference Detected.
| ♥ 0 |
I’m dumping a rather complicated dictionary to json, and something about the format is causing an error, “circular reference detected.” I can’t post the code but the basic format is v1: v1, ] f: [ f1: f1, f2: f2 ] filled in from variables through the code and pulling from an API. Any idea what went wrong/where I should start looking?

The most common reason for this bug is if you have a dictionary key that is either formatted weird or not a string at all. Make sure you aren't using another dictionary or a list as a dictionary key, all your commas are in place, and possibly check all the API responses you're getting back. It's possible that a response isn't being parsed correctly and you are shoving more data than you thought into the dictionary. Marked as spam
