Hi,

Thank you for your post. Yes I can PUT the data in JSON format but how to interact with the code I am thinking on that. My script snippet of Flask is as
follows,
>>> x3=requests.put('http://127.0.0.1:5000/todos/todo1', data={'task': 'We are trying to build API. API seems okay.'})
>>> x4=requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:5000/todos')
>>> x5=x4.text
>>> print x5
{
    "todo1": {
        "task": "We are trying to build API. API seems okay."
    }, 
    "todo2": {
        "task": "Change my brakepads"
    }, 
    "todo3": {
        "task": "Life is okay"
    }
}

Now, as I understand it I have to work out something around this PUT. 
As per my guess, 
1. I should work around this put if takes data from file.
2. The data I would get thus, I have to convert this JSON data (by import json or so), into text or the format my main code understands as input.

Am I thinking fine. If not please suggest. 

There is an interesting error occurs almost every other day port 5000
in 
requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:5000/todos') gives error everyother day.
I have stopped firewall, consulted senior administrators of system group but no error seems there. It works suddenly and does not work suddenly,
if you suggest how to fix this issue. 

I am using Python2.7+ on MS-Windows 7 Professional. I am using Microsoft Security Essentials as AntiVirus.

Subhabrata Banerjee.
