First you have to parse that because its in json format. Try

data = JSON.parse(response._bodyText)
data.result

For Reference you can study about JSON

response._bodyText.result is undefined because _bodyText is a string.

You must first turn _bodyText into an object:

var body = JSON.parse(response._bodyText);

After that body.result should work.

What you have inside response._bodyText is a stringified JSON. To access the keys inside of it. you need to first parse it using JSON.parse

Example: JSON.parse('{ "hello":"world" }')

This will give you an object {hello: 'world'}

In your case you do JSON.parse upon response._bodyText, then you can access it just like a normal object.

JSON.parse(response._bodyText)
