How to get a value from a JSON string using jackson library?

Question

I am trying to get a value from a JSON string but I am getting a null value instead.

App2.java :

package JsonExample1;

import org.codehaus.jackson.J         


        

Answer 1

Your root node doesn't have a customerSessionId, it has a HotelListResponse. Get that first.

//other methods
public void basicTreeModelRead()
{
    JsonNode innerNode = rootNode.get("HotelListResponse"); // Get the only element in the root node
    // get an element in that node
    JsonNode aField = innerNode.get("customerSessionId");

    //the customerSessionId has a String value
    String myString = aField.asText();

    System.out.println("customerSessionId is:" + myString);
}

This prints

customerSessionId is:0ABAAA7A-90C9-7491-3FF2-7E2C37496CA2
