I have been trying to use an API from https://api.nomics.com/ and I cant seem to use the data inside the JSON object. I want to get the "price" value and display it in the console log but it keeps saying my variable is undefined please assist:
app.post("/", function(req, res) {
request("https://api.nomics.com/v1/currencies/ticker?key=demo-26240835858194712a4f8cc0dc635c7a&ids=BTC&interval=1d&convert=USD&per-page=10&page=1", function(error, response, body) {
var data = JSON.parse(body);
var price = data.price;
console.log(data);
console.log(price);});});
The result I get is:
[ {
"id": "BTC",
"currency": "BTC",
"symbol": "BTC",
"name": "Bitcoin",
"logo_url": "https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/nomics-api/static/images/currencies/btc.svg",

"volume_change_pct": "0.1010",
"market_cap_change": "-2739282102.40",

} }]
var price is undefined. is it because of the "[]" that is surrounding the JSON object?
