I am using wikipedia api to get some data from them I am getting data response in this manner.

{
    "batchcomplete": "",
    "continue": {
        "accontinue": "WYSIWYG_extensions/da",
        "continue": "-||"
    },
    "query": {
        "allcategories": [
            {
                "size": 1,
                "pages": 1,
                "files": 0,
                "subcats": 0,
                "*": "WikibaseRepoEntityTypes extensions/ar"
            },
            {
                "size": 5,
                "pages": 5,
                "files": 0,
                "subcats": 0,

You can try console.log(resp.query.allcategories[0]['*']);

This is bracket notation

Try to access it like this

console.log(resp.query.allcategories[0]['*']);

It should work
