URL parameters and different Data Types

CSV Getter URLs are very adaptable and agile. They are helpful for modular, no-code programming. Take the following:
https://api.csvgetter.com/files/8718e00cc1?type=csv
This URL returns CSV Data, thanks to the type=csv parameter. Simply changing the type to type=json_records will return json data.
