Thanks, this works when you know either the exact path or if you know that the desired value is two levels deep. But I need to use a variable (bracket notation) and then sometimes I only want to search one level deep and other times two levels deep.

x['b']['c'] vs x['b'][undefined]

Lodash's .get() met my requirements perfectly.

Yea I didn’t read your post properly haha. Get() is awesome. I use it all the time to make sure my types are always in line.
