When I make a Https GET call, the following JSON is returned
{"-KXprfmbpX6dEqXLU1z_":{"Pizzatype":"Margarita"},"Toppings":{"-KXprfm_PBdOYUYiWzkK":["Onions","Mushrooms"]}}
I want to retrieve the values of Pizzatype and Toppings. However I am not aware of the real time keys -KXprfmbpX6dEqXLU1z_ , -KXprfm_PBdOYUYiWzkK. I am coding in an online Bot building platform in Node. How can I retrieve these values?

I'm trying to delete items from a local json server using a http request.
The problem is that the items don't have 'real' id's. Their id's are strings which json doesn't recognises as id's (so far I know).
So when I try to search for an id (either to get it or delete it) I have to use for example:
"http://localhost:3000/watchlist?imdbID=tt5745872"
which gives an array with 1 item.
When using this in a delete request, it will result in a 404.
I was wondering if there is some kind of a workaround for doing this or do I really have to implement 'real' id's?
Context: I'm getting movies from an API and I then store those in an json server. As the API uses string id's, it would be a pain in the ass to try and implement a second id for the same object.
I am still learning about API fetching. I want to get a list of values instead of just one value.
I am currently calling this API https://www.omdbapi.com that returns a movie based off the name or id:
http://www.omdbapi.com/?t=nameOfMovie
When calling that url with something like 'batman' it returns one json value of one of the batman movies. How would I be able to fetch a list? Or would that be entirely up to the people who run the API?
I am doing an HTTP GET request to /maximo/oslc/os/mxsr and using the oslc.select query string parameter to choose:
*,doclinks{*},worklog{*},rel.commlog{*},rel.woactivity{*,rel.woactivity{*}}
This lets me get related data, including related worklogs, but the worklog does not include the 'description_longdescription' field.
The only way I seem to be able to get that field is if I do a separate HTTP GET to query a worklog id directly through /maxrest/rest/mbo/worklog . Then it provides the description_longdescription field.
I understand this field is stored separately through the linked longdescription table, but I was hoping to get the data through the "next gen" oslc api with one http get request.
I've tried putting in 'worklog{*,description_longdescription}', as I read somewhere that longdescription is a "non-persistent" field and must be explicitly named for inclusion, but it had no effect.
I figured out that for the /maximo/oslc/os/mxsr object in the API, I needed to reference the related MODIFYWORKLOG object through the rel.modifyworklog syntax in the oslc.select query string:
oslc.select=*,doclinks{*},rel.modifyworklog{*,description_longdescription},rel.commlog{*},rel.woactivity{*,rel.woactivity{*}}
I also had to explicitly name the non-persistent field description_longdescription for it to be included.

My goal is very simple and I would guess it is a very common goal among web developers.
I am creating a Rails (5.1) application, and I simply want to use AJAX to get the value of a specific cell in a specific row of a specific table in my database (later I am going to use that value to highlight some text on the current page in the user's browser).
I have not been able to find any documentation online explaining how to do this. As I said, it seems like a basic task to ask of jquery and ajax, so I'm confused as to why I'm having so much trouble figuring it out.
For concreteness, say I have a table called 'animals', and I want to get the value of the column 'species' for the animal with 'id' = 99.
How can I construct an AJAX call to query the database for the value of 'species' for the 'animal' with 'id' = 99 .
Though some DBs provide a REST API, what we commonly do is define a route in the app to pull and return data from the DB.
So:
Add a route
Add a controller/action for that route
In that action, fetch the data from the DB and render it in your preferred format
On the client-side, make the AJAX call to that controller/action and do something with the response.
I'm working on a C# program that retrieves data from a ServiceNow database and converts that data into C# .NET objects. I'm using the JSON Web Service to return my data in JSON format.
What I want to achieve is as follows: If there is a relational mapping between a value (for
example: I have a table called Company, where CEO is not a TEXT field but an sys_id to a Employee Table) I want to be able to output that data not with an sys_id (or just displaying the name property by using the 'displayvariable' parameter) but by an object displayed in JSON.
This means that the value of a property should be an object in JSON instead of just a single value.
A few examples:
// I don't want the JSON like this
{"Company":{"CEO":"b181e841c9212c008aeb36850331fab2"}}
// Or by displaying the name of the sys_id table
{"Company":{"CEO":"James Henderson" }}
// I want the data as follows, so I can have all the data I need inside a single JSON record.
{"Company":{"CEO":{"name":"James Henderson", "age":34, "sex":"male", "office":"SBN Left Floor 23"}}}
From reading the documentation I couldn't find anything in the JSON Web Service that allowed me to display the information like this nor
find any other alternative. It should have something to do with joining the tables and displaying it all in the right format.
I have been using SNC for almost three years and have not found you can automatically join tables in a web service. Your best option would be to use a scripted web service which possibly takes a query parameter and table parameter. Then you can json serialized your result as you see fit.
Or, another option would be to generate a new processor that will traverse the GlideRecord object. The ?JSON parameter you pass in to the URL is merely a flag to pass your request to a particular processor. Unfortunately the OOB one I believe is a Java class not a JS script, so you would need to write a script much like I mentioned earlier to traverse the object path serializing the object graph as far down as your want to go.
