iam new to python and json.I want to know whether body object used in the code is a json object

or a python object.

It's neither, rather a dictionary.
It could be saved as a json object, probably would be best choice

thank you sir.so as i understand "body" is a python dictionary,and in the code the json input is being stored in the python dictionary called "body"..iam i right?..thanks again

You should use Requests.
Data payload to server is a Python dictionary.
Requests has build in json decoder,it will do encoding inn and out of server(can just call json()).
Eg:

>>> import requests
>>> data = {"device_name": "Super-pc", "Type": "DevicePort", "page_size": 2}
>>> r = requests.post('http://httpbin.org/post', json=data)
>>> r.status_code
200
>>> r.json()
{'args': {},
 'data': '{"device_name": "Super-pc", "page_size": 2, "Type": "DevicePort"}',
 'files': {},
 'form': {},
 'headers': {'Accept': '*/*',
             'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate',
             'Content-Length': '65',
             'Content-Type': 'application/json',
             'Host': 'httpbin.org',
             'User-Agent': 'python-requests/2.9.1'},
 'json': {'Type': 'DevicePort', 'device_name': 'Super-pc', 'page_size': 2},
 'origin': '83.143.86.75',
 'url': 'http://httpbin.org/post'}
>>> data = r.json()
>>> data['json'].get('device_name', 'Not on server')
'Super-pc'
>>> data['json'].get('hello', 'Not on server')
'Not on server'

You should mask origin key and value from the output :)
