                  }
                ]
              },
              {

          },
          {

                  {
                    "04:50 PM": "slotId106"
                  }
                ]
              },
              {
                "hour": "5",
                "hour_slots": [
                  {

              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      };

 export default data;

In datapicker.js :

  import React, { Component } from 'react';
import data from './data';
import './datepicker.css';

class DatePicker extends Component {

  constructor(props){
    super(props);
     this.state = {
        counter:0,
        issubmitted:false
     };
   }

  increment(){
    if(this.state.counter < 6){
      this.setState(prevState => ({counter: prevState.counter + 1}))
    }
  }

  decrement(){
    if(this.state.counter > 0){
      this.setState(prevState => ({counter: prevState.counter-1}))
   }
  }

  formsubmitted(){
    this.setState({
        issubmitted:true
    })
  }

  showslots(){
        if(data.available_slots[this.state.counter].date_slots.length === 0){
            return(
                <p>No slots</p>
                )
        }else {
            return(

                    data.available_slots[this.state.counter].date_slots.map(obj =>{

                        return (
                          <div id="slotinfo">

                            <div><p>slot: {obj.hour_slots[1]}</p></div>

                          </div>
                        );
                    })
                )
        }

  }

        <div className="display">
          <input type="text" id="date" value={data.available_slots[this.state.counter].date}/>
        </div>
        <div className="decrement">

      <div>
        {this.state.issubmitted ? this.showslots() : ''}
      </div>


      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default DatePicker;

you'll get a type error like this because map function on iterates arrays try pushing this in an array — Yahya Ahmed

@YahyaAhmed I want to display "08:10 AM": "slotId001" how can I do that using above code? — stone rock

The error is related to how it's being rendered. Could you edit the question to show your render function? — LazyElephant
– LazyElephant, Commented Feb 24, 2018 at 15:02
for(var x in object) iterates through objects you can use that. — Yahya Ahmed

Write it like this:

hour_slots.map((el,i) => {
   let key = Object.keys(el)[0];
   return <div key={i}>{key} : {el[key]}</div>
})

Full Code:

data.available_slots[this.state.counter].date_slots.map((obj,j) => {
    return (
        <div id="slotinfo" key={j}>
            <div> <p>Hour : {obj.hour}</p> </div>
            {
                obj.hour_slots.map((el,i) => {
                    let key = Object.keys(el)[0];
                    return <div key={i}>{key} : {el[key]}</div>
                })
            }
        </div>
    );
})

Working Snippet:

const data = {
    "available_slots": [
        {
            "date": "Today",
            "date_slots": [
              	{
                	"hour": "8",
                	"hour_slots": [
		                {
		                    "08:10 AM": "slotId001"
		                },
		                {
		                    "08:50 AM": "slotId005"
		                }
            		]
        		},
        		{
		            "hour": "3",
		            "hour_slots": [
		                {
		                    "03:00 PM": "slotId005"
		                },
		                {
		                    "03:30 PM": "slotId007"
		                }
		            ]
       			}
    		]
        },
    ]
}

const App = props => {
	return <div>
		{data.available_slots[0].date_slots.map(obj => {
		    return (
		      	<div id="slotinfo">
			       	<div> <p>Hour : {obj.hour}</p> </div>
			        {
			        	obj.hour_slots.map((el,i) => {
			       			let key = Object.keys(el)[0];
			       			return <div key={i}>{key} : {el[key]}</div>
			    		})
			    	}
		      	</div>
		    );
		})}
	</div>
}

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('app'))

consider given data,

"hour_slots": [
                  {
                    "08:10 AM": "slotId001"
                  },
                  {
                    "08:50 AM": "slotId005"
                  }
                ]

When you say obj.hour_slots[0],it gives an object

{ "08:10 AM": "slotId001" }

which react jsx not understand ant not able to render it.

That's why you getting such error.You need to access the individual property to display slotId001.

EDIT :

As per comment given below,in order to display "08:10 AM": "slotId001",

e.g. for first element.

`${ Object.keys(obj.hour_slots[0])[0] } : ${data[Object.keys(obj.hour_slots[0])[0]] }`
