Cannot find a differ supporting object '[object Object]' of type 'object'. NgFor only supports binding to Iterables such as Arrays

Question

I looked at similar questions, but none of them helped me. I am going to receive an object like the following:

[
  {
    \"id\": 1,
    \"name\": \"Safa\",
          


        

Answer 1

Store that objects into Array  and then iterate the Array
export class AppComponent {

 public obj: object =null;
 public myArr=[];

  constructor(){

    this.obj = {
      jon : {username: 'Jon', genrePref: 'rock'},
      lucy : {username: 'Lucy', genrePref: 'pop'},
      mike : {username: 'Mike', genrePref: 'rock'},
      luke : {username: 'Luke', genrePref: 'house'},
      james : {username: 'James', genrePref: 'house'},
      dave : {username: 'Dave', genrePref: 'bass'},
      sarah : {username: 'Sarah', genrePref: 'country'},
      natalie : {username: 'Natalie', genrePref: 'bass'}
  }
  }
  ngOnInit(){
    this.populateCode();
  }

  populateCode(){
    for( let i in this.obj) {   //Pay attention to the 'in'
    console.log(this.obj[i]);
    this.myArr.push(this.obj[i]);
  }
  }
 }




    {{item.username}}
    {{item.genrePref}}
