How do I receive a JSON file using AJAX and parse it using javascript?

Question

I\'m trying to parse this very long and complicated JSON that foursquare gives me. This is my AJAX request:

    $.ajax({
      url: \'https://api.foursquare.         


        

Answer 1

You should do:

$.ajax({
    // some other code
    success: getVenues
});

You are telling ajax: "use getVenues function", not "use getVenus(data) value". As for second question:

var l = data.response.groups.length;
for (var i = 0; i < l; i++) {
    var group = data.response.groups[i];
    var k = group.items.length;
    for (var j = 0; j < k; j++) {
        var venue = group.items[j].venue;
        // use venue as you wish
    }
}
