Since this JSON has a pattern defined, why don't you use deserialize it? And then inside that array, use the indexers ([0]) to get the first object inside that array?

These are some JavaScript JSON deserializers that you can use, please read this thread.

The actual documentation about the parseJSON() method is here on jQuery's website[^].

Solution 2

Something like this;

JavaScript

var responseObject = JSON.parse(jsonresponse);

var theArrayIWant = responseObject.GetCategoryListResult;
