Converting a Nested JSON Object into a Java Map

Working with JSON data in Java is a common task, especially as web applications rely heavily on JSON for data interchange. However, when dealing with nested JSON structures, extracting specific information can seem daunting. In this post, we’ll tackle a practical problem: how to extract the creditor's key-value pairs from a nested JSON object into a Java HashMap.

Understanding the Problem

Imagine you have the following JSON object which contains account withdrawal information along with creditor details:

While it might seem complicated at first, we will break down the solution into manageable parts.

Solution Breakdown

Step 1: Setting Up Your Java Environment

Before diving into the code, ensure you have the necessary dependencies in your project. You will need the org.json library for handling JSON objects. If you're using Maven, add this dependency to your pom.xml:

Step 2: Creating a HashMap for the Output

We will create a HashMap to store the creditor data. This will allow us to easily manage the key-value pairs.
