IOS: POST Array values to JSON Server

Question

I have an array in this form:

(
        {
        itemId = 18;
        itemPrice = "90.00";
        itemQuantity = 100;
    },
        {
        itemId = 17;
        itemPrice = "88.00";
        itemQuantity = 120;
    }
)

I have to post it to Json server in this form

im[18][price]=90
im[18][stock]=100
im[18][check]=1

im[17][price]=88
im[17][stock]=120
im[17][check]=1

Please help me how to do this currently i am using the following code

for (NSInteger i = 0; i < selectedIdArray.count; i++)
    {
        mapData = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"api_key=bf45c093e542f057c123ae7d6&menu_name=%@&im[%@][price]=%@&im[%@][stock]=%@&im[%@][check]=%@",MenuNameStr,selectedIdArraySTR,selectedPriceArraySTR,selectedIdArraySTR,selectedQuantityArraySTR,selectedIdArraySTR,@"1"];
    }

and it gives the following response

map data api_key=bf45c093e542f057c123ae7d6&menu_name=&im[18,17][price]=90.00,88.00&im[18,17][stock]=100,120&im[18,17][check]=1

Please someone help me out to send the following data separately to the server

Assuming this as your dict.

{
    itemId = 17;
    itemPrice = "88.00";
    itemQuantity = 120;
}

first get the count of elements in dict.

int getKeysCount = [allKeys count];

Assuming this to be the output you need

im[18][price]=90
im[18][stock]=100
im[18][check]=1

im[17][price]=88
im[17][stock]=120
im[17][check]=1

you need to update your loop

mapData = [NSStringstringWithFormat:@"api_key=XX--XX&menu_name=%@"];

for (int i = 0; i < selectedIdArray.count; i++) {
    int k = itemId[i];

    for (int j = 0; j < getKeysCount.count; i++) {
        mapData = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"&im[k][price]=%@&im[k][stock]=%@&im[k][check]=%@",itemPrice[i],itemQuantity[i],@"1"];
    }
}
NSLog(@"%@",mapData);

what is itemId[i] here array or string? – Abhi Jun 20 '17 at 09:44
I am assigning itemId = 17 as int k = itemId[i]; – iUser Jun 20 '17 at 09:46
but i have 2 item id – Abhi Jun 20 '17 at 10:00
man its inside a loop, it will automatically get updated, that's why i put itemId[i]. – iUser Jun 20 '17 at 10:03
@Abhi Did my answer fix your issue? – iUser Jun 20 '17 at 10:29
actually i have two values in itemid (17,18 as array) which may be increase or decrease and i am not able to break that array – Abhi Jun 20 '17 at 10:52
that is why i put this line inside the loop `int k = itemId[i];` This will iterate as per the the array count to get different itemId. – iUser Jun 20 '17 at 10:56
itemId = 17 as int k = itemId[i]; not working i have to store an array as itemId – Abhi Jun 20 '17 at 11:12
