How To Access JSON Keys With Hyphen

Normally, we access json object elements using dot notation i.e. var obj = {"key": "value"}; var val = obj.key;. How do we access the value in case of var obj = {"key-with-hyphens": "value"};? Do I have to revert to [] i.e. var val = obj['key-with-hyphens'];?

You can access it with this notation:

var val = obj["key-with-hyphens"];
