VBA getting values from a collection?

Question

I am very new to VBA and I can not figure out how to get values from a Collection.

This is my code:

Dim p As Object
Set p = JSON.parse(Response.Conte         


        

Answer 1

Don't forget the bang operator, designed for collection access by key:

links(1)!rel

or:

links(1)![rel] 'When there are spaces or reserved words.

Answer 2

Using JavaScript features of parsing JSON, on top of ScriptControl, we can create a parser in VBA which will list each and every data point inside the JSON. No matter how nested or complex the data structure is, as long as we provide a valid JSON, this parser will return a complete tree structure.

JavaScript’s Eval, getKeys and getProperty methods provide building blocks for validating and reading JSON.

Coupled with a recursive function in VBA we can iterate through all the keys (up to nth level) in a JSON string. Then using a Tree control (used in this article) or a dictionary or even on a simple worksheet, we can arrange the JSON data as required.

I will answer my own question:

links(1).Item("rel")
