Import value from JSON in google sheets - json

Question

I'm new to JSON and I found this custom script to import a JSON array in Google Sheets, but now I'm interested to filter out a certain value. How do I do this? I have no idea how to query this.
Example: I'm interested in the Pairs Priceusd value of this URL: https://api.dexscreener.io/latest/dex/tokens/0x333fd139caef6aa31056cc905987b77b1044d259.
Credits for the script go to: https://gist.github.com/paulgambill/cacd19da95a1421d3164
/**
* Retrieves all the rows in the active spreadsheet that contain data and logs the
* values for each row.
* For more information on using the Spreadsheet API, see
* https://developers.google.com/apps-script/service_spreadsheet
*/
function readRows() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var rows = sheet.getDataRange();
var numRows = rows.getNumRows();
var values = rows.getValues();
for (var i = 0; i <= numRows - 1; i++) {
var row = values[i];
Logger.log(row);
}
};
/**
* Adds a custom menu to the active spreadsheet, containing a single menu item
* for invoking the readRows() function specified above.
* The onOpen() function, when defined, is automatically invoked whenever the
* spreadsheet is opened.
* For more information on using the Spreadsheet API, see
* https://developers.google.com/apps-script/service_spreadsheet
*/
function onOpen() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var entries = [{
name : "Read Data",
functionName : "readRows"
}];
sheet.addMenu("Script Center Menu", entries);
};

A library for importing JSON feeds into Google spreadsheets. Functions include:
ImportJSON For use by end users to import a JSON feed from a URL
ImportJSONAdvanced For use by script developers to easily extend the functionality of this library
Future enhancements may include:
- Support for a real XPath like syntax similar to ImportXML for the query parameter
- Support for OAuth authenticated APIs
Or feel free to write these and add on to the library yourself!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changelog:
1.1 Added support for the noHeaders option
1.0 Initial release
*====================================================================================================================================*/
/**
* Imports a JSON feed and returns the results to be inserted into a Google Spreadsheet. The JSON feed is flattened to create
* a two-dimensional array. The first row contains the headers, with each column header indicating the path to that data in
* the JSON feed. The remaining rows contain the data.
*
* By default, data gets transformed so it looks more like a normal data import. Specifically:
*
* - Data from parent JSON elements gets inherited to their child elements, so rows representing child elements contain the values
* of the rows representing their parent elements.
* - Values longer than 256 characters get truncated.
* - Headers have slashes converted to spaces, common prefixes removed and the resulting text converted to title case.
*
* To change this behavior, pass in one of these values in the options parameter:
*
* noInherit: Don't inherit values from parent elements
* noTruncate: Don't truncate values
* rawHeaders: Don't prettify headers
* noHeaders: Don't include headers, only the data
* debugLocation: Prepend each value with the row & column it belongs in
*
* For example:
*
* =ImportJSON("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/most_popular?v=2&alt=json", "/feed/entry/title,/feed/entry/content",
* "noInherit,noTruncate,rawHeaders")
*
* #param {url} the URL to a public JSON feed
* #param {query} a comma-separated lists of paths to import. Any path starting with one of these paths gets imported.
* #param {options} a comma-separated list of options that alter processing of the data
*
* #return a two-dimensional array containing the data, with the first row containing headers
* #customfunction

/**
* An advanced version of ImportJSON designed to be easily extended by a script. This version cannot be called from within a
* spreadsheet.
*
* Imports a JSON feed and returns the results to be inserted into a Google Spreadsheet. The JSON feed is flattened to create
* a two-dimensional array. The first row contains the headers, with each column header indicating the path to that data in
* the JSON feed. The remaining rows contain the data.
*
* Use the include and transformation functions to determine what to include in the import and how to transform the data after it is
* imported.
*
* For example:
*
* =ImportJSON("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/most_popular?v=2&alt=json",
* "/feed/entry",
* function (query, path) { return path.indexOf(query) == 0; },
* function (data, row, column) { data[row][column] = data[row][column].toString().substr(0, 100); } )
*
* In this example, the import function checks to see if the path to the data being imported starts with the query. The transform
* function takes the data and truncates it. For more robust versions of these functions, see the internal code of this library.
*
* #param {url} the URL to a public JSON feed
* #param {query} the query passed to the include function
* #param {options} a comma-separated list of options that may alter processing of the data
* #param {includeFunc} a function with the signature func(query, path, options) that returns true if the data element at the given path
* should be included or false otherwise.
* #param {transformFunc} a function with the signature func(data, row, column, options) where data is a 2-dimensional array of the data
* and row & column are the current row and column being processed. Any return value is ignored. Note that row 0
* contains the headers for the data, so test for row==0 to process headers only.
*
* #return a two-dimensional array containing the data, with the first row containing headers

Answer 1

You can retrieve the value by
function dexscreener(token) {
var url = 'https://api.dexscreener.io/latest/dex/tokens/' + token
var obj = JSON.parse(UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getContentText())
return obj.pairs[0].priceUsd
}
put token in A1, and formula in B1 as follows
=dexscreener(A1)

Answer 2

Was able to make it work with this:
function DEXPRICE3 (url) {
var obj = JSON.parse(UrlFetchApp.fetch(url).getContentText())
return (obj.pairs[0].priceUsd)
}
Thanks for the help!
