if my json contains {"metric.label.store" : "BLAH"} which itself is inside another {} and so on and i want to do js code to retrieve the answer how do i og about that - context.panel.data. what?

Your question suggests you're trying to retrieve the value of a specific key ("metric.label.store") in a nested JSON structure using JavaScript.

Here’s an example of how you can retrieve the value:

Assuming your JSON looks like this:

{
  "someKey": {
    "anotherKey": {
      "metric.label.store": "BLAH"
    }
  }
}

To retrieve it in JavaScript, you would navigate the JSON structure step-by-step using dot notation or bracket notation.

Example Code:

// Example JSON structure (replace 'context.panel.data' with your actual data)
const context = {
  panel: {
    data: {
      someKey: {
        anotherKey: {
          "metric.label.store": "BLAH"
        }
      }
    }
  }
};

// Access the value of "metric.label.store"
const value = context.panel.data.someKey.anotherKey["metric.label.store"];
console.log(value); // Output: "BLAH"

Explanation:

  1. context.panel.data is the starting point—your root object.
  2. Navigate to the desired nested property step by step (e.g., .someKey.anotherKey).
  3. Use bracket notation (["metric.label.store"]) when the key name contains special characters (like a period ".") that are invalid in dot notation.

This will retrieve the value "BLAH" stored under the key "metric.label.store".

If you're uncertain about the specific path or the JSON is deeply nested and dynamic, consider using a recursive function or JavaScript utilities like Object.keys() to traverse it.
