I am receiving a JSON object from a http call and I am trying to extract values from it.
JSON object contains:

data:{userid:007, role:spy}

I use the following code to assign role property to another variable followed by some console log checks:

    currentUserRole = data.role;    

    console.log(type of data: +typeof(data));

    console.log(data: +JSON.stringify(data));

    console.log(user role: +currentUserRole);

The logs produce:

type of data: object

data: [{userid:007, role:spy}]

user role: undefined

Also I tried another method of assignment:

currentUserRole = data['role'];

But currentUserRole remains undefined. How can I set a property of a JSON object to a variable?
