How to extract value with simplejson?

Question

I have the following json string:

{"response":[[{"uid":123456,"name":"LA_"}],[{"cid":"1","name":"Something"}],[{"cid":1,"name":"Something-else"}]]}

How can I get Something value? I do the following

jstr = json.loads(my_string)
if jstr.get('response'):
    jstr_response = jstr.get('response')[1].get('name')

but it doesn't work ('list' object has no attribute 'get')

It's a dictionary mapped to lists of lists of dictionaries: `(jstr.get('response')[1])[0].get('name')` — wkl, Oct 27 '11 at 17:38

Try this.

jstr = json.loads(my_string)
if jstr.get('response'):
    jstr_response = jstr.get('response')[1][0].get('name')
