            ]
         },
         "ID":4,
         "CreatedAt":1346523371000000
      },

                  "Key":"Manufacturer"
               },

                  "Key":"Size"
               }
            ],
            "Media":{
               "ImageTile":"http:\/\xxxx\/v5\/products\/773040867635\/images\/tile",

            },
            "Categories":[
               "Hidden > Shoes > Women's > Boots"
            ],
            "Title":"Chaco Credence Tall Boot - Women's"
         },
         "ID":3,
         "CreatedAt":1346523325000000
      }
   ]
}

I have no clue on how to parse this json ? It has the total count of items .
Thanks.

This should get you started and you’ll need to continue out your definitions….

JSONObject rootObject = new JSONObject(inputString);
int totalCount = rootObject.getInt("TotalCount");
JSONArray items = rootObject.getJSONArray("Items");

JSONObject item = null;
JSONObject itemDetails = null;
int productID = 0;
String subtitle = null;

for(int i = 0; i < items.size(); i++) {
    item = items.getJSONObject(i);
    productId = item.getInt()"ProductId");
    itemDetails = item.getJSONObject("Product");
    subtitle = itemDetails.getString("Subtitle");
}
