Hi All,
How can we parse nested JSON? I tried it as below, it shows '[object Object],[object Object]'
JSON DATA :
{"returnObj":[{"RequesterUserId":"45333530","RequestCategory":"01","ServiceNowFormNumber":"RITM1234","ScTaskNumber":"SCNum01234","AdminSystemName":"MDM","CustomerNumber":"042721608","KycRm":"072"},{"RequesterUserId":"45333530","RequestCategory":"01","ServiceNowFormNumber":"RITM1234","ScTaskNumber":"SCNum01267","AdminSystemName":"MDM","CustomerNumber":"350802601","KycRm":"610"}]}

try this if you want to send the entire nested JSON as a string parameter:
request.setStringParameterNoEscape("returnObj", JSON.stringify(params["returnObj"]));
try this If you want to send the whole payload as the request body
request.setRequestBody(JSON.stringify(params));

Hi @Ankita9793 ,
I think you want to parse the data from JSON. So I have tried below snippet to parse data.
var jsonData = {
"returnObj": [{
"RequesterUserId": "45333530",
"RequestCategory": "01",
"ServiceNowFormNumber": "RITM1234",
"ScTaskNumber": "SCNum01234",
"AdminSystemName": "MDM",
"CustomerNumber": "042721608",
"KycRm": "072"
}, {
"RequesterUserId": "45333530",
"RequestCategory": "01",
"ServiceNowFormNumber": "RITM1234",
"ScTaskNumber": "SCNum01267",
"AdminSystemName": "MDM",
"CustomerNumber": "350802601",
"KycRm": "610"
}]
}
gs.info(jsonData.returnObj[1].RequesterUserId)
so here it will print the
45333530
One thing to consider is that 'returnObj' is the array and each one is array data and we can access those values using "." then property name.
Thanks,
