This action enables strucutred data in JSON format to be parsed into a MacroDroid dictionary variable.
JSON data is a widely used format by many Web APIs to provide data in a structured/nested format. A typical example of such data is below:
{
"firstName": "Rajesh",
"lastName": "Kumar",
"gender": "man",
"age": 24,
"address": {
"streetAddress": "126 Udhna",
"city": "Surat",
"state": "GJ",
"postalCode": "394221"
},
"phoneNumbers": [
{ "type": "home", "number": "7383627627" }
]
}
This data can be obtained from the following url: https://tools.learningcontainer.com/sample-json.json
This data will be parsed into a dictionary variable in MacroDroid and end up with the following format:
dictionary[firstName] = "Rajesh"
dictionary[lastName] = "Kumar"
dictionary[genger] = "man"
dictionary[age] = 24
dictionary[address] = sub-dictionary with 4 entries
dictionary[address][streetAddress] = "126 Udhna"
dictionary[address][city] = "Surat"
dictionary[address][state] = "GJ"
dictionary[address][postalCode] = "394221"
dictionary[phoneNumbers] = sub-dictionary with 2 entries
dictionary[phoneNumbers][type] = "home"
dictionary[phoneNumbers][number] = 7383627627
