Parsing JSON array and object in Android

Question

This is what the JSON looks like:

[{
    \"pmid\": \"2\",
    \"name\": \" MANAGEMENT\",
    \"result\": \"1\",
    \"properties\": [
        {
            \         


        

Answer 1

Your root object is a JSON array [], not a JSON object {} there. So, you need

jObj = new JSONArray(jsonStr);
jObj = jObj.getJSONObject(0);

The rest of your code will now work fine treating jObj as a JSONObject. The concept here is exactly the same as what you're doing for your properties JSON array.
