If you are comfortable with free format RPG, I actually prefer using YAJLINTO and creating the corresponding nested data structures in RPG.
Just my 2 cents.

Subject: Consume json - YJAL & SQL
Hi All,
I just got us up to 7.3 TR6 and started playing with Web Services. Fun!!
I am calling a Google API to get driving distances from an origin up to 25 destinations.
The request can return json (preferred) or xml.
This is purely a learning exercise for me. I just want to understand the different methods.
I am not looking for a discussion on which is better.
I have it working for consuming the resulting json with YJAL and XML with xml-into.
Thank you Scott!!!
I am struggling on how to format and receive the json using SQL-Table.
I have done a ton of embedded SQL but first time trying the SQL-Table.
Here is a sample of the json I receive.
There can be up to 25 destinations.
There can be up to 25 origins. I am only sending 1.
There is 1 row for each origin sent. Hence up to 25 rows.
Just not sure how to set up and consume with all the nested arrays.
Thank you for your guidance!!
