Question

I’m very new to Python. I have a JSON response like this :

{
  "Code" : "Success",
  "LastUpdated" : "2012-10-19T08:52:10Z",
}

I need to get the value of Code, which is Success. How can I do that in Python?

Answer 1

import json
# ... you read here from the file
data = '''{
  "Code" : "Success",
  "LastUpdated" : "2012-10-19T08:52:10Z"
}'''
result = json.loads(data)
print result['Code']

Be careful with the format!! I removed the comma after "LastUpdated" : "2012-10-19T08:52:10Z", because this is not a valid json.
