Hello everyone! how are you doing?  
I’m facing a problem again! haha.  
I need to access some data into a json response of an API I’m testing but I just can’t do that… I have been trying to do that all day long but it seens not to be accessible. For sure it is something I’m missing.

I’m returning the jason this way… `Return From Keyword ${POST.json()['dados']}` but I have tried in many many different ways including `$.dados` but it just doesn’t works…

The response I get from the API and I can return to the test is:

From this point on, I can’t access anything…

Could someone help me pls?  
Thanks in advance!

Hi Rafael,

Which library are you using? Requests Library or RestInstance?

Here is an example for requests library

> <https://github.com/manykarim/welcome-robotframework/blob/main/tests/booker/restful_booker.robot>

The syntax for requests library is  
${response.json()}[key]
