With the Business Central 2025 wave 1 (runtime 15) we can now bypass getting the token for a JsonObject to get the value of a key.
Use one of the GetValue methods provided by the AL compiler for JsonObject variables:
value := GetBoolean(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetByte(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetChar(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetInteger(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetBigInteger(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetDecimal(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetOption(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetDateTime(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetDate(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetTime(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetDuration(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetText(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetArray(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])
value := GetObject(Key: Text [; DefaultIfNotFound: Boolean])Watch my short YouTube video to see how I read keys from a sample app.json file.
