When I send the GET request via postman there is an option to send and download and the download file(an html file) is executable which opens In a browser. I wish to do the same via python via following code.
from requests import get as GET
import webbrowser
tokenUrl = '...'
tokenParams = {}
r = GET(tokenUrl,params = tokenParams)
print(r.text)
webbrowser.open(r.text)
However this displays an error in browser saying filenotfound error. Complete error message:

I found the requests' documentation on how to handle response helpful in resolving the error. Code now looks as
r = GET(tokenUrl,params = tokenParams)
with open('response.html', 'wb') as fd:
for chunk in r.iter_content(chunk_size=128):
fd.write(chunk)
webbrowser.open('response.html')
