    <p>I thought this other SO thread would have answered my question (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4883751/trouble-reading-json-object-in-python), as it is very similar to my problem, but the data there are a little different than the data in my case.</p> <p>I have about 470 records pulled from the Twitter API for twitter user data, something like:</p> <pre><code>{ steve: { follow_request_sent: false, profile_use_background_image: true, default_profile_image: false, geo_enabled: true, verified: false, profile_image_url_https: "https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/1416115378/profile_normal.jpg", profile_sidebar_fill_color: "F8E846", id: 1376271, profile_text_color: "000000", followers_count: 2042, profile_sidebar_border_color: "FFFFFF", location: "Dallas and 51°33′28″N 0°6′10″W", profile_background_color: "7d0000", listed_count: 110, status: { favorited: false, contributors: null, truncated: false, text: "So Microsoft's cloud is down. Can't say I have noticed. To the cloud! (the Amazon one of course)", created_at: "Wed Feb 29 15:51:44 +0000 2012", retweeted: false, in_reply_to_status_id: null, coordinates: null, id: 174884564718723070, source: "&lt;a href="http://www.tweetdeck.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;TweetDeck&lt;/a&gt;", in_reply_to_status_id_str: null, in_reply_to_screen_name: null, id_str: "174884564718723073", place: null, retweet_count: 0, geo: null, in_reply_to_user_id_str: null, in_reply_to_user_id: null }, utc_offset: -21600, statuses_count: 11504, description: "Network engineer. Cisco, Juniper, F5, HP, EMC, etc. If it is in the data center I deal with it. Arsenal and Mavericks supporter to the max over at @steverossen", friends_count: 822, profile_link_color: "0000ff", profile_image_url: "http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/1416115378/profile_normal.jpg", is_translator: false, show_all_inline_media: false, profile_background_image_url_https: "https://si0.twimg.com/profile_background_images/192104695/stadium.jpg", id_str: "1376271", profile_background_image_url: "http://a2.twimg.com/profile_background_images/192104695/stadium.jpg", screen_name: "steve", lang: "en", profile_background_tile: false, favourites_count: 0, name: "Steve Rossen", notifications: false, url: "http://steverossen.com", created_at: "Sat Mar 17 21:36:32 +0000 2007", contributors_enabled: false, time_zone: "Central Time (US &amp; Canada)", protected: false, default_profile: false, following: false }, } </code></pre> <p>the problem being that each record starts with the person's twitter handle so is different for each record. So I've only been able to get so far as using: </p> <pre><code>import json import csv f = open('my.json') data = json.load(f) f.close() for item in data: print item </code></pre> <p>to print out those handles but can't figure out how to get into each person's record without having a key.</p> <p>what am I grossly overlooking here? I would atleast like to get at the "description", which is nested inside of the users name as a key.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
