    "workers": {
        "usersRunning": 1,
        "usersWaiting": 0,
        "total": 8,
        "jobsWaiting": 0,
        "inUse": 4
    },
    "users": {
        "activeUsers": 1,
        "activity": [{
            "maxWorkers": 4,
            "inProgress": 4,
            "displayName": "abc",
            "waiting": 0
        }]
    }
}

I recommend using pandas. It has methods to read the json and you can use dataframe filtering to find the data you need.

I would recommend you use pandas and convert to excel The following is sample that will help you to get your answer

json_ = {"workers": {"usersRunning": 1, "usersWaiting": 0, "total": 8, "jobsWaiting": 0, "inUse": 4}, "users": {"activeUsers": 1, "activity": [{"maxWorkers": 4, "inProgress": 4, "displayName": "abc", "waiting": 0}]}}
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(data= json_['workers'], index=[0])
df.to_excel('json_.xlsx')
