Pandas DataFrame from list of dicts (couldnt find this config)
from the following list of dicts
d=[{u'identifier': u'AAPL', u'item': u'beta', u'value': 1.0448},
{u'identifier': u'GOOG', u'item': u'three_yr_weekly_beta', u'value': 1.2656},
{u'identifier': u'AAPL', u'item': u'legal_name', u'value': u'APPLE INC'},
{u'identifier': u'GOOG', u'item': u'legal_name', u'value': u'Alphabet Inc.'},
{u'identifier': u'AAPL',u'item': u'market_category',u'value': u'Common Stock'}]
I was able to get as far as
df = pd.DataFrame.from_records(d, index='item')
i would like for the columns to be the 'identifier' (AAPL and GOOG) rather than 'identifier' and 'value'
python pandas dataframe

I think you need pivoting:
df = pd.DataFrame(d).pivot('item','identifier','value')
#alternative solution
#df = pd.DataFrame(d).set_index(['item','identifier'])['value'].unstack()
print (df)
identifier AAPL GOOG
item
beta 1.0448 NaN
legal_name APPLE INC Alphabet Inc.
market_category Common Stock NaN
three_yr_weekly_beta NaN 1.2656
this is the only thing that I could get to work : df = pd.DataFrame(d).set_index(['item','identifier'])['value'].unstack()
