Read JSON Value
Pull a value out of a JSON string.
Pull a value out of a JSON string.
When and how to use it
Connect the input from the preceding step on the path that should perform this operation.
Fill the fields with data available in the trigger's context.
Connect the needed outputs; an unconnected path cannot run later blocks.
Configuration fields
JSON source — source
Provide the source expected by this block: a feed/account for a trigger, or JSON text for Parse JSON. Follow this block's example rather than guessing from a similar name.
Input: Text with variable suggestions.
Default:
{response.body}.Path — path
Use the path format required by this block. Parse JSON selects a value inside JSON; custom API paths select an endpoint.
Input: Text.
Format example, not a ready value for your server:
data.items.0.name.Default: ``.
Store as — storeAs
Choose a short result prefix such as result. Later blocks must use this same prefix and run after this block. It is not a Discord channel or a persistent table.
Input: Text.
Default:
value.Outputs and next steps
out: Continue to the next step.Read the result after this block, using its configured prefix and the fields supported by the selected operation. Do not assume every response has a text or id field.
Test and troubleshoot
Invoke the correct trigger with simple inputs and verify the expected effect. Confirm variables exist on this path. A preview alone does not verify Discord delivery.
