# Extract nodes or values from JSON — JSON

Botize method — `btzjson.extract_from_json` (action).

Given a JSON, it allows extracting different nodes or values ​​from it.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `mb_switch` *(boolean)* — Rules
- `source` *(string, one of: "string" = JSON String; "url" = JSON URL file, default: "string")*
- `json_string` *(string)*
- `json_url` *(string)*

It also accepts repeatable field groups, with these prefixes: `mb_filters_*`, `key_path_*`, `tagname_*`, `tagtitle_*`, `tagtype_*`. These are composite components (buttons, filters, keyboards); the trailing number is set by the user as they are added.

## Output variables

Data this step makes available. Reference them in later steps with the double-brace tag.

- `{{_status}}` *(text)* — _status
