How to access data in response body for RapidApi urban dictionary Android

I am getting response body ** is
okhttp3.internal.http.RealResponseBody#6e33b4c How to convert this to json or string.
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder()

.get()
.addHeader("x-rapidapi-host", "mashape-community-urban-dictionary.p.rapidapi.com")

in RAPID API DEVELOPER DASHBOARD, I CAN SEE RESPONSE BODY How to convert it to string or JSON?

This would get the list in JSON
JSONObject object = new JSONObject(response.body().string());
final JSONArray array = object.getJSONArray("list");

How do I read Distance Matrix API response in JSON from my app?

String url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json?origins="+expedTextView.getText().toString()+"&destinations="+destTextView.getText().toString()+"&sensor=false&mode=driving&key=AIzaSyC9BT3f2jmmPSJh2ewGfGiuVz1zeIfPX4A";
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse response = null;
try {
response = httpClient.execute(httpGet, localContext);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Toast.makeText(SecondScreen.this, ""+response, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
This is my code. I've tried to make an HTTP request suing this URL which constructs just fine, but, when I read the response, it doesn't look like JSON at all. Below is the code from response. Notice that the link works well when I put it in my browser.

About CURL Request

I have to use CURL request to parse an API link using android application.In the response i get an id and username as output.But,I have to display a token value from that API.That token is displayed on Linux machine while running curl.I didn't get the token value in windows machine.I used the code like this:
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://moneyplayer.herokuapp.com/users.json");
JSONObject json_one,json;
json_one = new JSONObject();
json =new JSONObject();
json.put("password","userPwd");
json.put("username","userEmail");
json_one.put("user",json);
Log.v("JSON Response is",""+json_one);
StringEntity se = new StringEntity(json_one.toString());
se.setContentType(new BasicHeader(HTTP.CONTENT_TYPE, "application/json"));
httppost.setEntity(se);
httppost.setHeader("Content-type","application/json");
// Execute HTTP Post Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
String responseStr = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
Log.v("Response String Value is",""+responseStr);
In Linux machine the output is displayed like this:
{"id":37,"username":"testing123#1234.com"}
HTTP/1.1 200 O4 Cache-Control:max-age=0, private, must-revalidate

After sending HTTP request to server sometimes I get status 302 (redirect)

I try to send POST request to some server with json parameters and I wait json response.
From Android it works fine but from Linux I get status 302 redirect. I really don't know where is my problem.
Here is command from linux:
curl -i -X POST --data "id=105&json={\"orderBy\":0\"maxResults\":50}" "http://mysite.com/ctlClient/"
And I get response:
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

Android:
String data = "{\"orderBy\":0\"maxResults\":50}";
String WEFI_MAIL_URL = "http://mysite.com/ctlClient/";
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = null;
String out = null;
try {
httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpost = new HttpPost(WEFI_MAIL_URL);
httpost.setHeader("User-Agent", "Apache-HttpClient/4.1 (java 1.5)");
List <NameValuePair> nvps = new ArrayList <NameValuePair>();
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", "105"));
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("json", data));
httpost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps, HTTP.UTF_8));
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpost);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
if (entity != null) {
InputStream is = entity.getContent();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line = null;
while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null) {
out = line;
}
is.close();
if(isTimeOut == false){
_loadActual();
}
else{
return;
}
} else {
return;
}
} catch (Exception e) {
}
if (httpclient != null) {
httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
}
}
access log on Android response:
"POST /ctlClient/ HTTP/1.1" 302 - "-" "Apache-HttpClient/4.1 (java 1.5)"
"GET /fwf/online/ HTTP/1.1" 200 13981 "-" "Apache-HttpClient/4.1 (java 1.5)"
We can see that on POST server redirects me to /fwf/online/
From Wireshark i get the same results from both methods:
POST /ctlClient/ HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.1 (java 1.5)
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 301
Host: mysite.com
Connection: Keep-Alive
Why it works from Android but not from Linux with CURL?
Can anybody help me or give me direction how can i solve it?
Thank you

You want to add -L to your curl command. See http://curl.haxx.se/docs/faq.html#How_do_I_tell_curl_to_follow_HTT.

Android: HTTP POST response - 401

I have faced with one problem - returning 401 error msg when you already signed in and trying to get access to another secured pages. The mystic of this problem for me is that I can get access to another secured pages after you are signed in if check it via Firefox RestCLient or via iOS app but cannot get access via Chrome Advanced Rest Client and Android app. However, content-type and other necessary params are set the same in both web tools and apps. I have tried to set different auth headers with encoded login:pass but it doesnt help and it doesnt need because it should work without it, I think(at least FF and iOS app work without this header). What`s gonna be wrong?

That is my peace of Restful code in Android app:
public String serverRequest(int action, Bundle params) {
if (action == 0) {
if (Const.DEBUG_ENABLED)
Log.e(TAG, "You did not pass action.");
return "You did not pass action.";
}
try {
HttpRequestBase request = null;
HttpPost postRequest = null;
switch (action) {
case SIGN_IN:
request = new HttpPost();
request.setURI(new URI(SIGNIN_URL));
request.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8");
postRequest = (HttpPost) request;
if (params != null) {
UrlEncodedFormEntity formEntity = new
UrlEncodedFormEntity(paramsToList(params));
postRequest.setEntity(formEntity);
}
break;
case SIGN_OUT:
request = new HttpPost();
request.setURI(new URI(SIGNOUT_URL));
request.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8");
break;
case BANK_CARD_VERIFY:
request = new HttpPost();
request.setURI(new URI(BANK_CARD_VERIFY_URL));
request.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8");
postRequest = (HttpPost) request;
if (params != null) {
UrlEncodedFormEntity formEntity = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(paramsToList(params));
postRequest.setEntity(formEntity);
}
break;
}
if (request != null) {
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
if (Const.DEBUG_ENABLED)
Log.d(TAG, "Executing request: " + actionToString(action) + ": " + urlToString(action));
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
StatusLine responseStatus = response.getStatusLine();
int statusCode = responseStatus != null ? responseStatus.getStatusCode() : 0;
Log.d(TAG, "Status code: " + statusCode);
}
}
(sign in and sign out are public, bank_verify is secured page. Android app has the same response headers like chrome). It seems there is something problem with session or something else but I`m not sure exactly.
EDIT:
It seems I have found what`s the problem here. In Android app I create a new HttpCLient object due to it all old data is losed. But another question - how to make this HttpCLient reusable?

Problem found. I reuse httpClient everytime in spite of that to use only one which has all session data everytime. Just implement if statement to check if I have already httpclient object then you it otherwise create a new.
