How to capture the values from Get Response Body - Robot framework

Output from Response Body

{"data":[{"id”:122,"name”:”Test 1“,”description”:”TEST 1 Test 2 …..}]},{"id”:123,"name”:”DYNAMO”……}]},{"id”:126,”name”:”T DYNAMO”……

*** Keywords ***    
Capture The Data Ids 
@{ids}=     Create List    122  123  126  167  190   
${header}    Create Dictionary    Authoriztion...   
${resp}      Get Response    httpsbin    /data    

${t_ids}=       Get Json Value    ${resp.content}    /data/0/id

Problem

I have created a list of above ids in the test case and I need to compare the created data against the id returned in the response body. t_ids returns 122and when 0 is replaced by 1, returns 123

Rather than capturing individual id, is it possible to put them in for loop?

:FOR    ${i}  IN          ${ids}
\    ${the_id=       Get Json Value    ${resp.content}    /data/${i}/id ?

I tried this and failed.

What is the possible solution to compare the ids from the response data against the created list?

Thank you.

It is possible to what you want, but it is always good to know what kind of data structure your variable contains. In the below example loading a json file replaces the received answer in ${resp.content}. To my knowledge this is a string, which is also what Get File returns.

The example is split into the json file and the robot file.

so_json.json

{
    "data":[
        {
            "id":122,
            "name": "Test 1",
            "description": "TEST 1 Test 2"
        },
        {
            "id": 123,
            "name": "DYNAMO"
        },
        {
            "id": 126,
            "name": "T DYNAMO"
        }
        ]
 }

so_robot.robot

*** Settings ***
Library    HttpLibrary.HTTP
Library    OperatingSystem    
Library    Collections    


*** Test Cases ***
TC
    ${json_string}  Get File    so_json.json
    ${json_object}  Parse Json    ${json_string}
    :FOR  ${item}    IN    @{json_object['data']}
    \    Log To Console    ${item['id']}

Which in turn gives the following result:
