How can i import json in datatable from console..in python flask

Sorry, I don't understand your question. Can you provide a bit more detail of what you want to do? I'm a bit confused about the "console" part of the question.

hi .. I have a json returned and i am printing it on a console.
using javascript..how do I print it in data tables.

You can add it to Datatables using the rows.add() API. Then use draw() to redraw the updated Datatable.

code for javascript..
this is the file where i need to use ajax in order to access the url and display data in tables..
So how do i call the url

$(document).ready(function() {
$("#submit_btn").click(function(e)
{
e.preventDefault();
$.post( "/output", $( "#main_form" ).serialize(),function(dataSet){
console.log(dataSet.manufacturerPartNumberSearchReturn);
//$("#info_table").html(JSON.stringify(data));
//alert(dataSet.manufacturerPartNumberSearchReturn.products[0].brandName);
var dataObject = dataSet.manufacturerPartNumberSearchReturn.products; // variable in which api data is.

            $("#example").DataTable(
            {
              //ajax code will come here.


            });

        });
});

});

The ajax is used within the Datatables config. There are some examples in the doc page. Also here is an example:
https://datatables.net/examples/data_sources/ajax.html

More examples here:
https://datatables.net/examples/ajax/index.html

Looks like you want to use the POST option as shown in the docs.

The Data doc page explains the supported data formats.
