[Solved] How to refer to JSON data?

Hi,

I’m trying to parse this JSON data with the “Convert JSON to variable” action:

{ "response": { "success":"true", "trophies": [ { "id":"9181", "title":"Beta Tester 01", "description":"Test the animation and controls demo.", "difficulty":"Bronze", "image_url":"http:\/\/i.gjcdn.net\/imgserver\/game-trophy\/75\/9181_1.jpg", "achieved":"false" }, { "id":"9182", "title":"Beta Tester 02", "description":"Test the tutorial level demo.", "difficulty":"Bronze", "image_url":"http:\/\/i.gjcdn.net\/imgserver\/game-trophy\/75\/9182_1.jpg", "achieved":"false" }, ] } }

How can I refer to “trophies” sub-elements loaded in the variable structure?

Thanks in advance for your help.

If you entered “Result” as the name of the variable where the converted JSON will be stored, you can then write in an expression:

Do =VariableString(Result.response.trophies.id) to the text of MyObject

so that the “MyObject” text object will display 9181.

Thanks Florian but I already try that and didn’t work.

Finally I get to this solution:

Do =VariableString(Result.response.trophies.0.id) to the text of MyObject

Where 0 is referencing to the first trophy item.

It seems that nameless items of a collection in a JSON string are referenced by a number (starting from 0).

Sorry, I didn’t see that you were using an array.
Indeed, arrays element are named “0”, “1”, “2”… :slight_smile:

Thanks! :slight_smile:
