Nested JSON structures

[nblackburn]

I appear to have found myself in need of help in figuring out how retrieve the contents of a nested json map.

Code: Select all

{
     "total": 2,
     "jake": {"gender": "male", "age": 26},
     "jane": {"gender": "female", "age": 24} 
}

The data above is an example of the kind of structure i could be dealing with.

How would a retrieve the entire structure into a map without knowing their type as i only appear to be able to get the base elements and not anything nested, any ideas?.

Hi,

I think you simply missed the JSONType() function:

This allows you to determine the type of a value during parsing.

Best,
