python append to array in json object

Question

I have the following json object in python:

jsonobj = {           "a": {               "b": {                       "c": var1,                       "d": var2,                       "e": [],                    },                  },             } 

And I would like to append key-value elements into "e", but can't figure out the syntax for it. I tried appending with the following, but it doesn't come out right with the brackets and quotes:

jsobj["a"]["b"]["e"].append("'f':" + var3) 

Instead, I want "e" to be the following:

"e":[        {"f":var3, "g":var4, "h":var5},        {"f":var6, "g":var7, "h":var8},     ] 

Does anyone know the right way to append to this json array? Much appreciation.

Answer 1

jsobj["a"]["b"]["e"].append({"f":var3, "g":var4, "h":var5}) jsobj["a"]["b"]["e"].append({"f":var6, "g":var7, "h":var8})
