how do I eport json to variables and access the values
Please see the JSON below. This is what I get in a ajax response. I am new to javascript and need some help. How do I set, for example the Fields(third line down) to it's own variable and then query the variable to show the subfield. for example fields.System.WorkItemType. As the System.WorkItemType has a dot in the middle of it does this make a different of how to get the value?
