title: How to make pandas read csv input as string, not as an url
body: <p>I'm trying to load a csv (from an API response) into pandas, but keep getting an error </p>
  
  <pre><code>"ValueError: stat: path too long for Windows" and "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] File b'"fwefwe","fwef..." 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>indicating that pandas interprets it as an url, not a string. </p>
  
  <p>The code below causes the errors above.</p>
  
  <pre><code>fake_csv='"fwefwe","fwefw","fwefew";"2","5","7"'
  df = pd.read_csv(fake_csv, encoding='utf8')
  df
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I force pandas to interpret my argument as a csv string?</p>
