I need to access token. How can I access token ?

Thanks in advance

is this a server response or what? anyway, `response[0].body.token` will gove you token. — marmeladze, Jul 28 '16 at 10:57
JSON is a *textual notation* for data exchange. [(More)](http://stackoverflow.com/a/2904181/157247) If you're dealing with JavaScript source code, and not dealing with a *string*, you're not dealing with JSON. Moreover, if that *were* meant to be JSON, it would be invalid (keys and strings must be in double quotes). — T.J. Crowder, Jul 28 '16 at 10:58

var myObj = [
   {
      body:
        {
           token : 'xxxxxxx'
        }
   },
   {
      other : 'aaa'
   }

];
console.log(myObj[0].body.token);
//or other version
var bodyObj = myObj.find(function(item){ return item && item.body});
console.log(bodyObj.body.token);

Assuming you have parsed the JSON (and that it's valid JSON, which it isn't in the question) and assigned the result to data, you access it like this:

data[0].body.token

...because:

data refers to an array
[0] accesses the first entry in the array, which refers to an object
.body accesses that object's body property value, which refers to another object
.token accesses that object's token property value

E.g.:

var json = '[{"body":{"token":"xxxxxxx"}},{"other":"aaa"}]';
var data = JSON.parse(json)
console.log(data[0].body.token);

This is the solution

var data =[  
   {  
      "statusCode":200,
      "body":{  
         "token":"xxxxx"
      },


   },
   {  
      "token":"xxxx"
   }
];


console.log(data[0].body.token); // for first token
console.log(data[1].token); // for second token
