in ? Help! I'm a Noob

What would be the correct dot notation for highlighted nested "key:value" below. The return variable is named "results".

I tried "result.links.1.href" but received an error.

    Problem resolved. The dot notation was correct. It helps if you are calling the right API endpoint in your function. :)

    Hey there! Glad you were able to get this working!

    If you are looking to quickly find the correct path within a json object/response you are able to use the Sub Path filter. You can check it out in action at about the minute mark in this video:

    Essentially you can paste the entire response you receive from your external api request (var api_1) normally. You can paste this into the sub-path section and this will provide you with a visual tool to select which path within the response you would like to navigate to.

    There is also a handy tool for visualizing JSON data externally here: https://jsoncrack.com/editor
