How to get inner array values from json-array

Question

This is the json response:

How to get indicator_name values from "target" array:

Answer 1

    JSONParser parser = new JSONParser();

    Object obj = parser.parse(new FileReader("your file path"));

    JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) obj;

    String name = (String) jsonObject.get("indicator_name");
    System.out.println(name);

you can try like this.

Answer 2

for(int i=0; i<jsonArray.length(); i++)
{
    JSONObject object = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
    JSONObject target = object.getJSONObject("target");
    String indicator_name = target.getString("indicator_name");
}

target is not an array, it's an JSONObject in fact. this site may help to make the json data looks more clear.

Answer 3

You can do something like this.

try {
                    JSONArray _jArrayMain = new JSONArray("YOURJSONSTRING");
                    for (int i = 0; i < _jArrayMain .length(); i++) {
                        JSONObject _jObj = _jArrayMain.getJSONObject(i);
                        JSONObject   _jObjTarget = _jObj.getJSONObject("target");
                        String _indicator_name = _jObjTarget.getString("indicator_name");
                        System.out.println("Indicator Name : " + _indicator_name);
                    }
                } catch (JSONException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }

Answer 4

You can use below code snippet.

final JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray("JSON_STRING");
for (JSONObject jObject: jsoonArray) {
     final JSONObject   jsonTargetObject = jObject.optJSONObject("target");
     if(jsonTargetObject != NULL) {
     final String indicatorName = jsonTargetObject.optString("indicator_name", null);
     System.out.println("Indicator Name : " + indicatorName);
}

In your example,

JsonArray responseJson = [
