I am getting this jSON as a response from an API I am using, how, in javascript, can I retrieve the value of the "intent" key.

I tried to retrieve it using ["outcomes"]["intent"], but I am getting an error saying there is not "outcomes" key.

{
  "msg_id": "0df2d41d-7468-4752-a5dc-5980e880aa7a",
  "_text": "i am feelig quite anxious because of school",
  "outcomes": [
    {
      "_text": "i am feelig quite anxious because of school",
      "intent": "more_negative",
      "entities": {},
      "confidence": 0.515
    }
  ]
}

`outcomes` is an **array** (with one element). – Felix Kling Sep 02 '14 at 19:24
@FelixKling so json["outcomes"][0]["intent"]? – wordSmith Sep 02 '14 at 19:31
Assuming `json` contains the JS object corresponding to the JSON above, yes. – Felix Kling Sep 02 '14 at 19:32
