Wondering if I could pick peoples brains

I am trying use Python to extract some information from an API, my goal is to get data from a few API calls and put it in a CSV, though I would be OK just displaying it neartly for now... I am new to coding and I think I am getting my lists and functions mixed up....

Here is my code so far

import requests
import json

API-Key = '1234'
My-ID = '4321'
url = 'https:://playboy.com/api/'
header = 'X-User-Key: API-Key'

def get_list_1():
__list1 = requests.get(url + My-ID, header=header)
__json_list1 = json.loads(list1.text)
__return json_list1

def get_list_2(list1_item):
__list2 = requests.get(url + My-ID + list1_item, header=header)
__json_list2 = json.loads(list2.text)
__return json_list2

def main():
__passed_items = json_list1
__for i in passed_items:
____get_list_2(i)
____print(i)

main()

OK, for a start you're throwing away the value returned from get_list_2.

for i in passed_items:
get_list_2(i)
print(i)

try

for i in passed_items:
__list2 = get_list_2(i)
__print(i)
__for j in list2:
____print(j)

For right indentation... _ = space
