i'm trying to pull [dict get $data watched show title] from the data below after using json2dict. what am I missing to pull the watched data via dict or is there a better way?

Looking at the json-data shows that the watched-element contains a tcl-list, not a dict. Considder using something along these lines (assuming $source contains the json-source)

I'm trying to extract id or name from this json source:

@elbandido:
First off, did you convert your json-data to a tcl-list/dict collection using the json::json2dict command?
Secondly, your set of data will return a list of dicts, so you'll either have to iterate through each of them using foreach, or select a specific index using lindex before using dict to get the id property.

yes, like this:

As I said in my previous post, the json-data you posted will translate to a list of dicts... Use lindex or foreach to extract the dict(s) from the list before using the dict-command on it/them.
