There are a lot of discussion posts about JSON; responses from Web APIs, Firebase, maps, etc. Thunkable does not have a native way to view JSON, other than converting it to text and trying to parse it manually. Therefore I created a little screen that will parse a JSON object and allow you to “explore” in a way similar to the Firebase data viewer. I will admit it is not very pretty, but it does the job. In [this sample app](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/41519982152b0d3d7ea5eed5c706b8dd) there are two buttons that will either load the data from the firebase database or load data from a collection of blocks. You could very easily add a button to part the response object from a Web API, or any other source. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/d/6d5bacac6a2cfb57db23f85aaa6a05716811a224.png) Happy Thunking! ---
