Federalist Papers

Has anyone had success in bringing in the federalist papers dataset?  The JSON form can be found here: http://ptrckprry.com/course/ssd/data/federalist.json

These are the following steps I have attempted:

- Parse the json into a csv, but the new line character seems to be getting stuck when using read csv
- Using python extension operator configured to a local conda environment.  Same result

Regarding point 2 above, in pandas outside of the RM, the dataframe is exactly what I wanted.  

For context, I use this in class to show we can use text and the similarity within to classify the author.

import pandas as pd
URL = "http://ptrckprry.com/course/ssd/data/federalist.json"
fed = pd.read_json(URL, lines=True)
fed.head()

    Thanks, I was actually able to port another file from SAS using Read SAS which did the trick.

    Hi @btibert,

    As a partial answer, have you tried Read Document (after downloading the federalist.json file on your computer) and JSON to Data operators ?

    Below, the process.

    Hope this helps,

    Regards,

    Thanks for this, but right now that only parses the first entry.  There are ~85 or so entries

    @btibert the JSON parsing on "JSON to Data" is pretty terrible. I'd strongly recommend trying OWC's "Web Automation" extension which is much more powerful.
