Parsing and then reading specific values of JSON / HTTParty::Response - ruby-on-rails

Question

I want to be able to retrieve the tier and division from this code, however when using the response object from HTTParty and doing res[0]["#{id}"]["tier"] it comes up with "cannot implicitly convert string to integer", which means it expects an integer, but I don't know where
This is the response I get (I'm doing it in a loop which is why I'm putting in the ID with "#{id}")
{"37714607": [
{
"queue": "RANKED_SOLO_5x5",
"name": "Diana's Patriots",
"entries": [{
"leaguePoints": 32,
"isFreshBlood": false,
"isHotStreak": false,
"division": "IV",
"isInactive": false,
"isVeteran": false,
"losses": 65,
"playerOrTeamName": "Wicked7000",
"playerOrTeamId": "37714607",

}],
"tier": "GOLD"
},

Answer 1

As your json something like below
{"37714607": [
{
"queue": "RANKED_SOLO_5x5",
"name": "Diana's Patriots",
"entries": [{
"leaguePoints": 32,
"isFreshBlood": false,
"isHotStreak": false,
"division": "IV",
"isInactive": false,
"isVeteran": false,
"losses": 65,
"playerOrTeamName": "Wicked7000",
"playerOrTeamId": "37714607",
"wins": 59
}],
"tier": "GOLD"
},
so it will first id = "37714607" then an array start([) the array contains hashes so first hash has "tier" key
so it should be
tiers = []
res["#{id}"].each do |result| #id = 37714607
tiers << result["tier"]
end

Answer 2

Seems like you need to do res[id.to_s][0]["tier"] instead – first take the root key, then first element (you did it vice versa).
