Fetches data from a specified URL using the GET method: This action involves making a request to a specific web address (URL) to retrieve information from a server. The GET method is one of the most common ways to request data, and it typically involves appending parameters directly to the URL to specify what information is needed. When the server receives the request, it processes it and sends back the requested data, which can be in various formats, such as JSON or XML. This method is particularly useful for retrieving data without making any changes on the server, such as fetching user profiles, product details, or any public data accessible through the web. For novice users, understanding GET requests is fundamental to working with APIs, as they form the basis for interacting with many online services and applications.
