Programatically accessing external APIs from splunk in Python

[aayushtandon23]

Need to access some URLs, from Splunk programatically in Python.
Need to know what should be the structure of the app and what files need to be placed in the bin and default folder respectively
Basically a splunk app is need to be created which get data from some APIs, we are able to hit those APIs and get the result outside of Splunk, but need to access them from splunk and display the data in dashboard without indexing the data into Splunk.
