get org.json from maven

add below dependency to your maven:

<!--
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.json/js
on -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.json</groupId>
<artifactId>json</artifactId>
<version>20210307</version>
</dependency>

Now import these:

//import these 
import org.json.JSONException; 
import org.json.JSONObject; 
import org.json.JSONArray;

Now you can convert a json string to json object just like that:

//now you can convert string to array and

object without having complicated maps

and objects

try {

JSONArray jsonArray = new

JSONArray("[1,2,3,4,5]");

//you can give entire jsonObject here

JSONObject jsonObject = new

JSONObject("{\"name\": [\"praveen\"]}");

System.out.println("outputarray: " +

jsonArray.toString(2));

System.out.println("outputObject: " +

jsonObject.toString(2));

} catch (JSONException err) {

System.out.println("Error: " +

err.toString());

}

Response response = RestAssured.given() .header("Content-type", "application/json") .and() .body("{\r\n" + " \"name\": \"praveen\",\r\n" + " \"job\": \"leader\"\r\n" + "}") .when() .post("https://reqres.in/api/users") .then() .extract().response(); System.out.println(response.prettyPrint());
