Having trouble performing a GET request

Im going through the documentation for using Fusion Table's API and I am having trouble executing HTTP Requests. For example, I copy and pasted this request 

GET https://www.googleapis.com/fusiontables/v2/tables/1e7y6mtqv891111111111_aaaaaaaaa_CvWhg9gc

into my URL bar. What I want is to see the table with 

table ID = "1e7y6mtqv891111111111_aaaaaaaaa_CvWhg9gc"

Instead, google does a search on the above code.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

You cannot just copy paste that with "GET" in your address bar.

If you would like to just see the result of the GET operation you can paste 

https://www.googleapis.com/fusiontables/v2/tables/1e7y6mtqv891111111111_aaaaaaaaa_CvWhg9gc

to your URL bar as your browser will do the "GET" here.

For making POST request however you may need to use some extension or tool like POSTMAN but for a simple "GET" request this will do.

I would request you to read up on HTTP GET/POST operations.
