How to parse the error message in Throwable in Android

Question

I get the error message string(ex.getMessage()) from Throwable in Android like below

{"message":"Authorization has been denied for this request."}

What is the best way to get only the message part from this error message string?

Answer 1

Use JSON parser like Gson and create class ErrorMessage like this

public class ErrorMessage{

private String message;

public getMessage(){
    return message;
    }
}

Then you just parse it using Gson:

Gson gson = new Gson(); String error = gson.fromJson(jsonString, ErrorMessage.class);
