JSONException: No value for myRating even when value exist on same node

Question

My app was working fine but suddenly it start giving me erros JSONException: No value for myRating. I know it's means the value doesn't exist on JSON but i cross check dozens times that myRating exist in JSON i received and i am also able to get other values from same node.

Here is my JSON

{
    "status": "SUCCESS",
    "uData": [
        {
            "User_ID": "210",
            "First_Name": "Alex ",
            "Image": "947d051925ba2014f231f17ffc04db6616645163211632870246.jpg",
            "coverPhoto": "1ce295d101204be40363f1e11301ed97d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e16645163211188778355.jpg",
            "Gender": "Male",
            "login_status": "0",
            "myRating": "5.00",
            "coverImageID": "354",
            "ProfileImageID": "343",
            "show_onlineStatus_check": "1",
            "verify": "1"
        },
        {
            "User_ID": "4",
            "First_Name": "John",
            "Image": "cf867d87b655591cbda928287da1ca3616520548151008802.jpg",
            "coverPhoto": "0323e6cfa77488abce52aa273e2f5f8e16523048561229563452.jpg",
            "Gender": "Female",
            "login_status": "0",
            "myRating": "5.00",
            "distance_check": "1",
            "coverImageID": "173",
            "ProfileImageID": "174",
            "show_onlineStatus_check": "1",
            "verify": "2"
        }
    ],
    "record": 3,
    "uCounter": "50"
}

That's how i am parsing JSON into my app

JSONObject parentArray = new JSONObject(completeJSON);
Log.d(TAG, "Parent Array " + parentArray);
JSONArray jsonArray = parentArray.getJSONArray("uData");
String profileCounter = parentArray.getString("uCounter");
Log.d(TAG, "JSON Array Of UDATA " + jsonArray); // User Data Where I have myRating node


String ImageURL, UserID, Distance, CoverPhoto, myRatings = null;
int Rec_Online_Status;
int distance_check, onlineStatus, verifyProfile;

for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {

    JSONObject childObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
    String Fname = childObject.getString("First_Name");

    ImageURL = childObject.getString("Image");
    CoverPhoto = childObject.getString("coverPhoto");

    UserID = childObject.getString("User_ID");


    String gender = childObject.getString("Gender");
    Rec_Online_Status = childObject.getInt("login_status");

    distance_check = Integer.parseInt(childObject.getString("distance_check"));
    onlineStatus = Integer.parseInt(childObject.getString("show_onlineStatus_check"));
    verifyProfile = Integer.parseInt(childObject.getString("verify"));
    boolean testValue = childObject.has("myRating");
    Log.d(TAG, "doInBackground: Test Log = "+testValue);// This also return False
    myRatings = childObject.getString("myRating");// JSONException: No value for myRating
    

    int profileID = Integer.parseInt(childObject.getString("ProfileImageID"));
    int coverID = Integer.parseInt(childObject.getString("coverImageID"));
}

I am really not sure what i am doing wrong and when value exist in same node it should get fetched but as you can see i am getting exception. Can anyone help me out in this. The is required to run app so i am not using has or optString.

Is the JSON object you show the object that's used in your code? That's the object you see when you print it, before going over the `jsonArray` length? — Jorn Rigter, Dec 07 '22 at 22:50
@JornRigter as you can see the above JSON. I also check in Postman,Logcat,Server but i am getting same JSON and it's not getting the `myRating` node. I am out of idea how i can fix it — Ritu, Dec 08 '22 at 19:29
Still a bit confused. All of the other variables from the JSON are parsed correctly? I was asking because if that's the case, then the only option I see of what's going on is that myRating is indeed missing from your JSON - that's why I asked if this is the JSON string you see when you print it, just before you start parsing the JSON — Jorn Rigter, Dec 08 '22 at 19:37
@JornRigter All the other variables are working fine. As you can see the loginstatus variable just above it and it is parsed successfully — Ritu, Dec 08 '22 at 19:40
@Ritu I have tested the json String you have provided and this exception occurred only for the `distance_check` property which doesn't exist on the first object (`org.json.JSONException: No value for distance_check`) but it works for the `myRating`. For properties which may not exist in the json it is better to use the `optString` with a fallback like `optString("distance_check", "0")`. Try to put a breakpoint below the line of `JSONObject childObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);` and check their values again for each `JSONObject`. — MariosP, Dec 09 '22 at 08:42
@MariosP Thanks for the comment. This is must value for app to run, so `optString` not an option. As you getting error on `distance_check ` and it's still exist on same node as `myRating` . Do you have any idea what i am doing wrong here? — Ritu, Dec 09 '22 at 23:16
@Ritu The `distance_check` doesn't exist on your first object and thats why it throws this exception but the `myRating` exists on both nodes and it works on my side. If you have verified that the json String has the `myRating` property in both nodes before starting to parse it then it would be helpful to upload a minimal reproducible project sample with the error on Github so i can replicate it on my side. — MariosP, Dec 12 '22 at 07:26
@MariosP I will put the code on Github and share a link with you soon — Ritu, Dec 22 '22 at 23:06
