[{"user_id"=>"4672046155508aafb4d01bca27cca8c6", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil]}, {"user_id"=>"007ba6fd74b3ef3c12734ddd0f2280ae", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil, nil, nil, nil]}, {"user_id"=>"0085e4d74738a384e10042b62acb56e2", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil, nil, nil]}]

You can do like this

hash_array = [{"user_id"=>"4672046155508aafb4d01bca27cca8c6", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil]}, {"user_id"=>"007ba6fd74b3ef3c12734ddd0f2280ae", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil, nil, nil, nil]}, {"user_id"=>"0085e4d74738a384e10042b62acb56e2", "email"=>"[email protected]", "sport"=>[nil, nil, nil]}]
hash_array.map{ |hash| hash["email"] }

It will return an array of all the emails

It isn't hash, it's an array of hashes. To access first hash email, you can do:

users.first['email']
