The `Get()` method is nothing but a shortcut of `Request()`. Using `Request()` directly is more complicated:

```cpp

auto r = session.Request(webcc::RequestBuilder{}.Get().

auto r = session.Request(webcc::RequestBuilder{}.

Get("http://httpbin.org/get")
|

());

```
|
||||
As you can see, a helper class named `RequestBuilder` is used to chain the parameters and finally build (don't miss the `()` operator) a request object.

You can then parse `r->content()` to JSON object with your favorite JSON library. My choice for the examples is [jsoncpp](https://github.com/open-source-parsers/jsoncpp). But the library itself doesn't understand JSON nor require one. It's up to you to choose the most appropriate JSON library.
