Get JavaScript Rest Object Values

  • 772

I make an Ajax request to a web service and it returns an object.

    $(document).ready(function () {
    $.ajax({
        url: "https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=TIME_SERIES_INTRADAY&symbol=MSFT&interval=1min&apikey=*******"
    }).then(function (data) {
        console.log(JSON.stringify(data));
    });
});

In the console I see the object that has a structure similar to the following:

{"Meta Data":{"1. Information":"Intraday (1min) prices and volumes","2. Symbol":"MSFT","3. Last Refreshed":"2018-05-30 16:00:00","4. Interval":"1min","5. Output Size":"Compact","6. Time Zone":"US/Eastern"},"Time Series (1min)":{"2018-05-30 16:00:00":{"1. open":"99.0000","2. high":"99.0500","3. low":"98.9100","4. close":"98.9500","5. volume":"2233252"}, ......

The issue is that I don't know how to access, for example, the value of the field open":"99.0000"

What should I do?

    To access json objects you simply have to follow their structure with ".", I'll explain it with the following example:

    data ={"fecha":{"fechaInicio:"20/02/2017","fechaFin":"20/05/2018"}}

    To access you fechaFinshould do:

    console.log(data.fecha.fechaFin)

    Since those idof your object have space you can use this other method to access the values:

    console.log(data["fecha"]["fechaFin"]);

    Therefore, to access the data that you want, following the structure that you have passed, you should use the second method:

    data["Time Series (1min)"]["2018-05-30 16:00:00"]["1. open"]
