Dear all,

I have a the following code whih return a Json response from an http request which is returned as below and is an Array of a single item ( The return data format is given from MSGraph Api ):

 

public String getGuestUserId(String AuthToken,String userEmail){

    String _userId
    def http = new HTTPBuilder(graph_base_user_url + "?")        http.request(GET) {            requestContentType = ContentType.JSON
            //uri.query = [ $filter:"mail eq '$userEmail'"].toString()            uri.query=[$filter:"mail eq '$userEmail'"]            headers.'Authorization' = "Bearer " + AuthToken    

            response.success = { resp, json ->                _userId=json["value"]
            }

            // user ID not found : error 404            response.'404' = { resp ->       
                _userId = 'Not Found'
            }

        }        _userId
    } 

The return json value is as below :

[{businessPhones=[], displayName=user test, givenName=null, jobTitle=null, 
mail=user1@gmail.com, mobilePhone=null, officeLocation=null, preferredLanguage=null, 
surname=null, userPrincipalName=user1_gmail.com#EXT#@rlxcom.onmicrosoft.com, id=7982c558- ba50-4380-9e94-114d8b340720}]

What I am trying to do from Script runner is to retrive only the Id member field

 

From the script console I have try to access it as below :

def ret =apiHelper.getGuestUserId(apiHelper.Token,email)

def json = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parseText ret

But is does not work and I get an exception as below:

 groovy.json.JsonException: expecting '}' or ',' but got current char 'b' with an int value of 98 The current character read is 'b' with an int value of 98 expecting '}' or ',' but got current char 'b' with an int value of 98 line number 1 index number 2 [{businessPhones=[], displayName=serge cal test, givenName=null, jobTitle=null, mail=calderara.serge@gmail.com, mobilePhone=null, officeLocation=null, preferredLanguage=null, surname=null, userPrincipalName=calderara.serge_gmail.com#EXT#@rlxcom.onmicrosoft.com, id=7982c558-ba50-4380-9e94-114d8b340720}] ..^ at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.complain(JsonParserCharArray.java:149) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeJsonObject(JsonParserCharArray.java:140) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeValueInternal(JsonParserCharArray.java:182) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeJsonArray(JsonParserCharArray.java:322) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeValueInternal(JsonParserCharArray.java:178) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeValue(JsonParserCharArray.java:153) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.decodeFromChars(JsonParserCharArray.java:43) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.JsonParserCharArray.parse(JsonParserCharArray.java:380) at org.apache.groovy.json.internal.BaseJsonParser.parse(BaseJsonParser.java:110) at Script127.run(Script127.groovy:20)

Any idea how can I return the ID part of the Json string ?

Thanks for help

regards

HTTPBuilder already takes care of the Json parsing for you since you specified ContentType.JSON. You should not need JsonSlurper here.

But like you said, if the API is giving you a single item, then you can get the id for that item like this:

_userId = json[0].id
