Parsing json - dictionary with in dictionary

[krish216]

Hello I want to extract the value of all pr1 from location1 & 2 from below json - Any ideas would be appreciated

import json

jsonget = {
   "data":[  
      {  
         "location1":[  
            {  
               "pr1":"hn1",
               "pr2":"2019-08-07"
            }
         ]
      },
      {  
         "location2":[  
            {  
               "pr1":"hn2",
               "pr2":"2019-08-07"
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}

if __name__ == '__main__':
   jsonout = json.dumps(jsonget)
   jsonout1 = json.loads(jsonout)
   for val in jsonout1['data']:
      print val['location1']

Error:
==ERROR: 
[{u'pr1'Traceback (most recent call last):
    print val['location1']
KeyError: 'location1'
: u'hn1', u'pr2': u'2019-08-07'}]

The second item in 'data' has the key 'location2', but not the key 'location1'.

Can you help with a snippet to extract pr1 for each location ..

Here is how output should like

location1 hn1
location2 hn2.

Thank you.

I would loop through the sub-dictionaries (for sub_dict in val.values()), and if the key you are looking for is in there, you can extract it.

         ]
      }
   ]
}
 
if __name__ == '__main__':
   jsonout = json.dumps(jsonget)
   jsonout1 = json.loads(jsonout)

   for val in jsonout1['data']:
    key = val.keys()[0]
    print key, val[key][0]["pr1"]
