I’m trying to get the data from a https.get request to an API and the json path has a 0 at the beginning. What does it mean and how do I access the data?
https.get(url, function(response) { response.on("data", function(data) { readableData = JSON.parse(data); length = readableData.0.length; // <-- inserting path (0.length) here doesnt work as usually
The path is 0.length and the json chart viewer throws an error.
The data looks like this in json viewer:
[ { "length": "32260db8-40d3-4973-9031-ceef149189aa", } ]

Answer
0
is index of array, to get length of the array do
readableData.length; // 1
to select first array do
readableData[0].length; // 32260db8-40d3-4973-9031-ceef149189aa
