I've been playing with the Recurly Python library (https://github.com/recurly/recurly-client-python) but I can't seem to find a simple way to parse the XML response from their API. Does anyone see a part of this library dedicated to parsing XML strings? I'm worried about building a custom parser and then the XML format changes.
I did a simple http request asking for Transactions and I got back an XML string like what is pasted below, but I don't see anything in their library to turn this into some type of parsed object that I can easily mold into a dataframe
