Read json file and parse the data key and value using flutter

I'm currently trying to read json from azure blob storage which I'm able to do.

Now I want to parse the data and display or print the data in Flutter (dart language). Below is the code.

    Future<void> main() async {
     String sasUrl = 'blob file url sas token';
    try {
      // Send HTTP GET request to the SAS URL
      final response = await http.get(Uri.parse(sasUrl));
    

      if (response.statusCode == 200) {
      // Parse response body as bytes
      String responsebody  = response.body;

      List<String> lines = LineSplitter().convert(responsebody) ;
      
      lines.forEach((line) {
        Map<String, dynamic> jsonData = json.decode(line);
        print(jsonData);
        jsonData.forEach((key, value) {
          print('$key: $value');
        });
      });

      // Handle the data as needed
    } else {
      print('Failed to fetch data: ${response.statusCode}');
    }
  } catch (e) {
    print('Error fetching data: $e');
  }
}

The error I'm getting is the following

Error fetching data: Expected a value of type 'Map<String, dynamic>', but got one of type 'List'

Is there any way to solve this I have tried using casting but didn't work.

The first thing is you need not to use line splitter in order to parse json. Just pass response.body to jsonDecode

And the other thing is you are getting a list after parsing the json. So you must change this line

Map<String, dynamic> jsonData = json.decode(line);

to

Map<String, dynamic> jsonData = json.decode(response.body)[0];

then you will get the desired result I suppose. So the final code will be like:

 Future<void> main() async {
 String sasUrl = 'blob file url sas token;
try {
  // Send HTTP GET request to the SAS URL
  final response = await http.get(Uri.parse(sasUrl));


  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
  // Parse response body as bytes
  String responsebody  = response.body;

  
    Map<String, dynamic> jsonData = json.decode(responsebody)[0];
    print(jsonData);
    jsonData.forEach((key, value) {
      print('$key: $value');
    });
  

  // Handle the data as needed
} else {
  print('Failed to fetch data: ${response.statusCode}');
}


 } catch (e) {
    print('Error fetching data: $e');
  }
}
