Hi, is there a function to read a json file and extract values using key search?

Thank you!

Hi Melissa,

You can use Python’s json module to do this. This article explains how you can use that module to parse your json files.

Kind regards,

To add to to this, if you were to upload a JSON file through a FileField or so, you could convert it to a dictionary as follows:

file: File = params.file_field.file
file_contents: str = file.getvalue()
parsed_json: dict = json.loads(file_contents)
