title: Reading data from JSON tiddlers
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
See [[JSON in TiddlyWiki]] for an overview of using JSON in TiddlyWiki.
!! Filter Operators for Accessing JSON Data
The following filter operators allow values to be read from JSON data:
* <<.olink jsonget>> to retrieve the values of a property in JSON data
* <<.olink jsontype>> to retrieve the type of a JSON value
* <<.olink jsonindexes>> to retrieve the names of the fields of a JSON object, or the indexes of a JSON array
* <<.olink jsonextract>> to retrieve a JSON value as a string of JSON
!! Text References for Accessing JSON Data
[[Text references|TextReference]] are a simple shortcut syntax to look up the value of a named property. For example, if a [[DictionaryTiddler|DictionaryTiddlers]] called `MonthDays` contains:
```
oct:31
nov:30
dec:31
```
... then `{{MonthDays##nov}}` will resolve to the value `30`.
The same is true if `MonthDays` is a [[JSONTiddler|JSONTiddlers]] with the following content:
```
{"oct":31,"nov":30,"dec":31}
```
