There is such a JSON response

{ response: { count: 19, items: [ { id: 158, title: 'Челябинск', important: 1 }, { id: 88, title: 'Набережные Челны', important: 1 }, { id: 1, title: 'Москва', important: 1 }, { id: 2, title: 'Санкт-Петербург', important: 1 } ] } }

Trying to parse like this

 try { JSONObject object = new JSONObject(response.responseString); JSONArray array = object.getJSONArray("items"); for (int i = 0; i < array.length(); i++) { JSONObject item = array.getJSONObject(i); City city = new City(); String title = item.getString("title"); int id = item.getInt("id"); city.setTitle(title); city.setId(id); Log.d("VkParseLog", city.getTitle()); } } catch (JSONException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }

But I get this:

 org.json.JSONException: No value for items at org.json.JSONObject.get(JSONObject.java:389) at org.json.JSONObject.getJSONArray(JSONObject.java:584) at ru.bullfinchdev.vkgram.SearchParamActivity$CitiesGet$1.onComplete(SearchParamActivity.java:92) at com.vk.sdk.api.VKRequest$3.run(VKRequest.java:482) at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:739) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:95) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:148) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5417) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:726) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:616)

    The "items" array is inside the "response" object, and you are trying to get it from the root object.

     try { JSONObject object = new JSONObject(response.responseString); JSONObject responseObject = object.getJSONObject("response"); JSONArray array = responseObject.getJSONArray("items"); for (int i = 0; i < array.length(); i++) { JSONObject item = array.getJSONObject(i); City city = new City(); String title = item.getString("title"); int id = item.getInt("id"); city.setTitle(title); city.setId(id); Log.d("VkParseLog", city.getTitle()); } } catch (JSONException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } 
       JSONArray array = object.getJSONArray("items");

      on

       JSONArray array = new JSONArray("items");

      replace
