# Request
This component is used to call Xano API endpoints.
> Please note that [Xano Client](/library/prefabs/xano/components/setup-xanoclient/) needs to be set up in your app before you can properly use this component.
## Extracting the data
The simplest way to extract the data from the response is by using an [Expression](/nodes/math/expression/) node, and accessing the body from the response:
<div className="ndl-image-with-background l">
![](/library/prefabs/xano/extract-response.png)
</div>
For more advanced extraction (and parsing) you can use a [Function](/nodes/javascript/function) node.
