Below is the sample response I get from Gmail API payload headers. How do I get the "Subject" value from the below array of objects.



I do not want to use response.get(index).getValue().toString(); as the index will change from message to message.



  [{

    "name": "From",

    "value": "Someone <someone@example.com>"

  },

  {

    "name": "To",

    "value": "xyz@example.com"

  },

  {

    "name": "Subject",

    "value": "This is the subject value"

  }]

  • you will have to loop through array and find which has name as 'Subject'

  • Yep, that's a textbook solution. I am looking if there are any better ways to transform the DS and retrieve it.

    If you look at the API reference they return a List with To, From and Subject. Note that, the index is not fixed (not mentioned in the API). So yes you only have the option of looping over

    Sorry, this json mislead me ;) but still there is a solution. If you want to use streams, filter with findFirst method should do what you want
