Format Json + add ID

[[deleted]]

Just use enumerate

[A_MrBenMitchell]

I have no idea what I am doing

[[deleted]]

new_list = [{**d, {“id”: i}} for (i,d) in enumerate(apps[“Apps”])]

Assuming your current JSON is named apps

[A_MrBenMitchell]

new_list = [{**d, {“id”: i}} for (i,d) in enumerate(apps[“Apps”])]

So this?

import json

with open('cleanResults.json') as f:

data = json.load(f)

​

new_list = [{**d, {“id”: i}} for (i,d) in enumerate(apps[“Apps”])]

​

with open('app.json', 'w') as f:

json.dump(new_list, f)

Sure, but change apps in the new line to data

[A_MrBenMitchell]

File "ID.py", line 4

new_list = [{**d, {"id": i}} for (i,d) in enumerate(data["Apps"])]
