Flutter - Accessing JSON nested array values

Question

I am attempting to create a Flutter app that reads JSON data and outputs to a listview. Below I have typed out a short example of my data.

Currently I am grabbing my data using:

Future<String> getJsonData() async {
var response = await rootBundle.loadString('assests/data/test.json');

this.setState(() {
  var convertDataToJson = json.decode(response);
  data = convertDataToJson;
});

I am then outputting my data using:

child: new Text(data[index]['text'])

How do I output the name of the Manager object that is stored?

  _id: 397134856770953216
  text: "This is the text that is stored"
  Manager: Object
      uName: "Username"
      name: "Real Name"
  Client: Object
      uName:"Second Username"
      name:"Second Real Name"

No way to tell without seeing the content of assests/data/test.json. — Günter Zöchbauer

You can easily access it by:

String managerName = data['Manager']['uName'];
print(managerName);

It will work.
