List indices must be integers or slices, not str but the indices are integers

I am writing a script in python (with discord.py) to check if a user owns a gamepass on Roblox. This uses a simple API call, and JSON processes the response.

When I try to run the code, it gives me this error:

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

I put int() around the things it's mad about for not being a str, but no avail. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Sample API Call

{"previousPageCursor":null,"nextPageCursor":null,"data":[{"type":"GamePass","id":1234567,"name":"foo","instanceId":null}]}

Traceback

<Response [200]>
Ignoring exception in command foo:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\RED\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 85, in wrapped
    ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "C:\Users\RED\Documents\Programs\Python\foo.py", line 110, in robux
    if int(response['data']['id']) == int(gamepassid):
TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

CodePudding user response:

Per the provided data, response["data"] is a list:

{
    "previousPageCursor": null,
    "nextPageCursor": null,
    "data": [
        {"type": "GamePass", "id": 1234567, "name": "foo", "instanceId": null}
    ]
}

So you should use response["data"][0]["id"] (which evaluates to an int, so using the int() call is superfluous).
