#Posting json in Python
#import packages
import requests
import simplejson as json
#variable
url="https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url"

#Headers
headers={"Content-Type: application/json"}
#Request
r= requests.post(url, json=payload)

First, I am importing the requests and simplejson modules.
Next, setting a variable and assigning the payload, headers value.
Finally, I have written the request and output statement to show the result in Python console.
