Use d3.json function with variable instead of URL

Hello I have a jquery ajax call that returns json data from an api.

I turned that json into a variable and want to use it in d3.json.

It isnt taking the variable name, I think because its expecting a url instead of a variable name.

Here is the code:

jQuery.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: myurl.com,
    success: function(effects)
    {
        var dataArray = effects;

            d3.json(dataArray, function (data) { //error here
                console.log(data);
            });
    }
});

Those of you good with d3, can you help me get the json data into the d3.json function?

Thanks

I think you've got the data from API which you called effects. I suppose that the effects are in json format like "key":"value" paires, you can try var jsonVariable = effects["key"] to get the value.
