尝试访问 object 内部的嵌套 json object

Question

I've been going at this for a couple hours and I'm about at my wits end.

The data I'm trying to access can either be parsed or stringified, whichever would be easier to code. Here is the parsed version of the object that I'm trying to access

    data: [
    {
      id: '----',
      user_id: '----',
      user_login: '----',
      user_name: '----',
      game_id: '----',
      game_name: '-----',
      type: 'live',
      title: '----',
      viewer_count: -,
      started_at: '----',
      language: 'en',
      thumbnail_url: '----',
      tag_ids: [Array],
      is_mature: false
    }
  ],
  pagination: {}
}

The problem I think i'm having is the "data:" at the beginning.

Here's the code that defines this

request.get(currentStatus, (err,res,body) => {

        if(err){

            return console.log(err);
        }
        console.log('Status: ' + res.statusCode)
        
        var data = body

        var id = _.get(body, 'data.id');
        console.log(id)
        
    });```

I really just need to access "id" and define it as its own variable.

Thank's for any advice.

Answer 1

I think you can simply parse the response body to a js object, and then access its fields like:

parsed = JSON.parse(body);
id = parsed.data[0].id;

and if the data array is longer than 1 you can change the index as needed

Answer 2

You only need to place the index of the array that corresponds to the object you need to access. var id = data[0].id
