Can't Parse JSON? I need some HttpService help.
So i'm trying to get a table off a website... But I can't seem to get it. Any idea why? Heres my scirpt:
01 | local HS = game:GetService("HttpService") |
02 |
03 | script.Parent.Enter.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() |
04 | local x = HS:GetAsync("https://getbible.net/json?p=James", false) |
05 | local y = HS:JSONDecode(x) |
06 | wait() |
07 | for i,v in pairs(y)do |
08 | print(v) |
09 | end |
10 | end) |

The site you provided does not have a properly formatted string.
also, connect is deprecated, use Connect :D
01 | local HS = game:GetService("HttpService") |
02 | local x = HS:GetAsync("https://getbible.net/json?p=James", false) |
03 |
04 | --Properly format le string |
05 | local y = HS:JSONDecode(x:sub(2):reverse():sub(3):reverse()) |
06 |
07 | function readTab(tab) |
08 | local function f(t) |
09 | wait(); |
10 | for i,v in next,t do --Iterate through each index |
11 | if type(v) ~= "table" then --if it's not a table |
12 | if i:match("verse") then --and it's key says 'verse' |
13 | print(i.." : "..v); --print it |
14 | end |
15 | else --otherwise |

But how would I be able to get the verse part? MRbraveDragon 374 — 7y

I'm guessing the data I need is inside a Table. How would I access the table? MRbraveDragon 374 — 7y

It seems you have multiple tables inside of eachother. I wrote you a little function to pick through them and isolate the verses to print Goulstem 8144 — 7y

If this is too disorganized still, note you can manually make a bunch of generic for loops to isolate each individual potential value. Goulstem 8144 — 7y
