How to parse facebook likes json response?

I managed to get the user likes using this code:

[FBRequestConnection startWithGraphPath:@"/me/likes"
                             parameters:nil
                             HTTPMethod:@"GET"
                      completionHandler:^(
                                          FBRequestConnection *connection,
                                          id result,
                                          NSError *error
                                          ) {
                          /* handle the result */
                          NSLog(@"User interests data: %@",result);
                          self.likesTextView.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"User interests data: %@",result];

}];

This is the log:

User interests data: {

data =     (

            {

        category = Company;

        "created_time" = "2015-04-09T11:31:13+0000";

        id = 403422586500762;

        name = "Sky3888 iOS & Android - Officially Agent";

    },

            {

        category = "Games/toys";

        "created_time" = "2015-04-09T11:30:57+0000";

        id = 1575053229378162;

        name = i12win;

    },

            {

        category = "Shopping/retail";

        "created_time" = "2015-04-07T04:44:09+0000";

        id = 273182176129865;

        name = Tinkerbelle;

    }
 );

However how do I get and display the "name" and "category" field in a UILabel?

You can do as below

NSDictionary *responseDict=(NSDictionary *)result;
    NSArray *mainArray=[responseDict objectForKey:@"data"];

    for (NSDictionary *dict in mainArray) {
        nameLabel.text=[dict valueForKey:@"name"];
        catLabel.text=[dict valueForKey:@"category"];
    }

Hope it helps you..!

Make an NSArray of the result and then loop through the objects in it performing the function objectForKeyon category and name to extract the data you want.

There is a similar question answered here: NSMutableArray losing all objects

You should be able to use the code from that and copy the results into your UILabel.
