This video is a very detailed look at how to process incoming JSON data and extract and display that data on a dashboard.

The video is a result of a question I received on another video regarding extracting data from a received JSON string.

The demonstration uses a simple python script to generate the data which is received using the MQTT input node.

The node then passes it to the JSON node which outputs a Javascript onject to the function node.

The function node is responsible too extracting the individual elements and sending the to the dashboard.
