i am trying to read a specific sub-key of a .json array which is saved from an http GET request.
the structure of the .json file is something like this:

"jsonarray": [{
    "subkey1": "a"
    "subkey2": "b"
    "subkey3": "c"
    "subkey4": "d"
    "subkey5": "e"
    "subkey6": "f"
    "subkey7": "g"
}],
"key1": "h",
"key2": "i"

i want to read the value of subkey5 i.e. "e", but when i try to do it, it gives me an error. where am i going wrong?

Hi. I'm new to java and stuck wondering how I would go about turning something like this: {} {} {} into this: [{},{},{}]. I'm trying to figure out how to do this to my incoming json data using Java. The data has like 20 similar objects, with the same keys but with constantly changing values.

Any help is much appreciated.

Sincerely,

your friendly neighborhood noob
