It's very similar to XmlGetChildName, there's one example of this in source code (xmlTools.hal).

begin
    area a_reply;
    json jobj;

webgetpostdata(a_reply);
jobj = parsejsonarea(a_reply);
       

logtext(0,JSONCountChildren(jobj,"roles"));

logtext(0,JSONGetChildNAME(jobj,"roles[0]",0));

return;
end;

Hi icodelab,

Example:

json js;
string 255 root,name;
Integer i;

name = JSONGetChildName(js,root,i);

• js = json area
• root = string path of your Json key
• i = child key ordinal number

Best Regards,
David D.
