Get JSON object from AJAX call

Question

I\'m new to AJAX and javascript. In my project, I have to get a json object in my javascript file. I\'ve used spray

Answer 1

just console.log(data) you will see your object.

you can access your value by something like this

data.id //will give you id

it also depend on you json how you are creating check this out for explanation

// if it simply json then access it directly
//Example => {"id":1,"value":"APPLE"}
data.id; // will give you 1 

// if it json array then you need to iterate over array and then get value.
//Example => [{"id":1,"value":"APPLE"},{"id":2,"value":"MANGO"}] then
data[0].id;  // will give you 1 

so your code will be like this

 $.ajax({
    url: 'http://localhost:8081/all-modules',
    dataType: 'application/json',
    complete: function(data){
        alert(data.status);// S1000
        alert(data.description);// Success
        // for results you have to iterate because it is an array
        var len =  data.results.length;
        for(var i=0;i<len;i++ ){
            alert(data.results[i]);
        }
    },
    success: function(data){
        alert(data)
    }
})

If you wish to see all the data in the JSON object, use JSON.stringify Refer here for more details

Hope that helps.

Answer 3

Try data[0].status;. Your data are in an object now. At console.log(data) you can see that

Answer 4

data is no longer in JSON format, it is a Javascript Object. You do not need to use function like jQuery.parseJSON anymore.

It is one common mistake for beginners.

If you want to see this Javascript Object, try alert(JSON.stringify(data));

Answer 5

Try the following;

var data = '{"name": "John","age": 30}';

var json = JSON.parse(data);

alert(json["name"]);
alert(json.name);
