getJSON to console.log() to output json structure

Question

I have the following code for getting json data:

$.getJSON( "assessments", function( assessments ) {     console.log(assessments);         }); 

I am perfectly getting all the data but the console has output as

[Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object] 

I want to output the values in JSON structure like this:

[ {     "id": 1,     "person": {         "personId": "person1",         "firstName": "Pactric"     },     "manager": {         "managerId": "manager1"     },     "state": {         "stateId": 1,         "description": null     },     "comments": null } ] 

How to console.log() for this data to display exactly as above's JSON structure? I am using $.getJSON NOT $.ajax for this application.

Answer 1

try with

console.log(JSON.stringify(assessments)); 

Answer 2

Stringify the JSON with indentation like so :

$.getJSON( "assessments", function( assessments ) {     console.log(JSON.stringify(assessments, undefined, 2)) }); 

JSON.stringify(value[, replacer [, space]]) where space is the indent. MDN
