I am looping through a WebService in Python which returns me partially data. I am calling the WebService until i receive an "End of Data" in the response.

The returned objects are always the same structure. They are only part of a large data which the WebService returns in chunks of 1000.

I am saving the returned JSON string in a data variable. How can i copy JSON array data_next to JSON array in variable `data' or merge both JSON files.

    You should post an example of the data you are receiving. – zipa Oct 15 '18 at 11:39
  • The answer will depend on the format of the data you're receiving. Send an example. – Sam Oct 15 '18 at 11:53

Let say you receive something like resp1 = '{"data": [...]}' and store it in a dictionary d. Assuming you do that using json package as follows:

d = json.loads(resp1)

For the next batch of data, you should store it in a temporal dictionary td, extract the field "data_next" and append it into the original dictionary:

td = json.loads(respN)
d["data"].append(td["data_next"])

Let us consider two list A =[{"a":"apple"},{"b":"banana"}] and list B = [{"c":"cat"}]

try below in python 3 to get merged array.

A.__add__(B)
