I have the JSON structure shown below and the python code shown below to
manipulate the JSON structure.
import json

data = json_input['data']
tdetails = data['Message']
print('json_input {} \n\ndata {} \n\n tdetails
{}\n\n'.format(json_input,data,tdetails))
I am getting the error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test_json.py", line 19, in <module>
tdetails = data['Message']
TypeError: string indices must be integers, not str
That will be because of this line:
tdetails = data['Message']
because "data" is just the string from your dict.
The JSON structure is valid as shown by http://jsonlint.com/
I want to be able to access the different fields inside `data` such as
`severity`, `subject` and also fields inside `tdetails` such as `CPUs` and
`Product`. How do I do this?
Then you need to decode "data". Example (untested):
data_decoded = json.loads(data)
and then access:
data_decoded['Message']
