Parse JSON objects by Javascript

I am new into Javascript and actually I'm facing following problem. I get JSON-object by calling an API. I get more than one object, that is fine. The objects are like this:

{"version": 1.0.1,
 "id": 125,
 "name": "Elmos App Test",
 "creationDate": "2017-05-28",
},
{"version": 1.0.4,
 "id": 25,
 "name": "Elmos App Prod",
 "creationDate": "2017-05-25",
},
{"version": 1.1,
 "id": 14,
 "name": "Elmos App Int",
 "creationDate": "2017-04-23",
}

I hope it is not too difficult to identify the JSON here. MY problem is now to save the three names in one variable.

Response of call should be like --> "Your apps are Elmos App Test Elmos App Prod Elmos App Int"

I actually have following Javascriptcode:

function getJSON(callback){
        request.get(url(), function(error, response, body){
            var d = JSON.parse(body);
            var result = d.name;//query for result
            if (result > null){
                callback(result);}
            else
         {
            callback("ERROR");
         }
    });

As you can see i try to save the name into the var result. Hope someone can help me out there. Thank you.

You can use Array#map() to only get the names and then join() to concatenate them

const array = [{"version": "1.0.1", "id": 125, "name": "Elmos App Test", "creationDate": "2017-05-28", }, {"version": "1.0.4", "id": 25, "name": "Elmos App Prod", "creationDate": "2017-05-25", }, {"version": "1.1", "id": 14, "name": "Elmos App Int", "creationDate": "2017-04-23" }],
  name = array.map(a=>a.name).join(' ');
console.log(name);
