string.replace() outputs me an error when defining it

Im getting data from an API. Then i want to replace the value in the string from "True" to "Online".

request = requests.get("https://api.cleanvoice.ru/ts3/?address=xxxxxxxxxxx")
request_text = request.text
data = json.loads(request_text)
status = data["can_connect"]

onoff = status.replace("True","Online")

The error i get from replace() is AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'replace'

I want to implement a Teamspeak Online Checker by getting the value if the server is online of some russian api. That by the way, works perfectly fine.

Im working on Python 3.7.6

I completely forgot that the value is a boolean value so i just added a if statement like paxdiablo wrote.

if status is True:
    print('Its online')
elif status is False:
    print('Its offline')

The status variable appears to be a boolean one, as evidenced by the error:

AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'replace'

You therefore should be able to just use something like:

onoff = "online" if status else "offline"
