I'm getting a pylint violation here --
    
    Instance of 'Request' has no 'json' member (but some types could not be inferred)

Although the requests docs say to use `.json()`, for some reason `.json` works for me where `.json()` doesn't; `.json()` yields this error:

    TypeError: 'dict' object is not callable

I determined that this is because our version of requests is 0.14.2 (which uses `.json`), not 1.1.0 (which uses `.json()`). Any advice on fixing the pylint violation?
