How to pull JSON values into Excel sheet - json

Question

I am trying to pull JSON values from a URL that I am working with at the moment. I may have done something like this before but I dont know what I'm missing here.
Here is the URL - https://eu-offering.kambicdn.org/offering/v2018/888/listView/golf.json?lang=en_GB&market=GB&client_id=2&channel_id=1&ncid=1568916879040&useCombined=true
And an image for clarity of what is needed to be extracted.
I ran a test using Tinman's approach as can be found here - How to get, JSON values to Work in VBA-JSON? , but i can't even apply his function, PrintJSONAccessors(), here
Public Sub exceljson()
Dim http As Object
Set http = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
http.Open "GET",
"https://eu-offering.kambicdn.org/offering/v2018/888/listView/golf.json?lang=en_GB&market=GB&client_id=2&channel_id=1&ncid=1568916879040&useCombined=true", False
http.Send
Dim results As Variant
results = BitfinexTextToArray(http.responseText)
Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Resize(UBound(results), UBound(results,2)).Value = results
MsgBox ("complete")
End Sub
Function BitfinexTextToArray(responseText As String) As Variant
Dim item As Variant, JSON As Object
Dim MaxColumns As Long
Set JSON = ParseJson(responseText)
For Each item In JSON
If item.Count > MaxColumns Then MaxColumns = item.Count
Next
Dim results As Variant
ReDim results(1 To JSON.Count, 1 To MaxColumns)
Dim c As Long, r As Long
For Each item In JSON
r = r + 1
For c = 1 To item.Count
results(r, c) = item(c)
Next
Next
BitfinexTextToArray = results
End Function
I need help with pulling the following item values from each of the JSON "event"
1. "englishName"
2. "participant"
3. "oddsFractional"

Answer 1

NOTE: my example uses the JsonConverter library and requires you to add a reference to the Microsoft Scripting Runtime to access the Dictionary object.
I set up a test file with JSON loaded from your URL above. After parsing the JSON data, the exercise becomes understanding how the various levels are nested and what type of data structure is being used. In your JSON, it's a mix of Collection, Array, and Dictionary in various combinations. My example below shows how you have to stack up these nested references to get the data you're looking for.
Review the information in this answer to understand how the JSON is parsed into a hierarchical data structure.
Option Explicit
Public Sub test()
Dim fileNum As Long
fileNum = FreeFile()
Dim filename As String
filename = "C:\Temp\testdata.json"
Dim jsonInput As String
Open filename For Input As #fileNum
jsonInput = Input$(LOF(fileNum), fileNum)
Close fileNum
Dim json As Object
Set json = ParseJson(jsonInput)
Debug.Print " English Name = " & json("events")(1)("event")("englishName")
Debug.Print " Participant = " & json("events")(1)("betOffers")(1)("outcomes")(2)("participant")
Debug.Print "Odds Fractional = " & json("events")(1)("betOffers")(1)("outcomes")(2)("oddsFractional")
End Sub
An even better solution will be to create an intermediate variable and then loop over the contents in an array (or collection or dictionary).
