Hi,

I had a nice code working but after testing on a differnt Perl Version I get some errors.

#$json_decoded is a refrence #$json_decoded = # { # # "data" : [ { # # "storageDeviceId" : "800000050679", # # "model" : "modelname", # # "serialNumber" : 12346, # # "svpIp" : "10.1.1.1" # # } ] # #} for my $key1 (keys $json_decoded) { # key1 = data for my $key2 (keys $json_decoded->{$key1}) { # key2 = 0 .. x for my $key3 (keys $json_decoded->{$key1}[$key2]) { # key3 = storageDeviceId,model,etc $REST_storage{$key3} = $json_decoded->{$key1}[ +$key2]{$key3}; } }

That worked fine on server 1. On server 2 I got message "keys on reference is experimental" 3 times (on every line with "keys ...") and I learned to use ...

 keys %{ $json_decoded }

instead of ...

keys $json_decoded

This works on both systems.

But when I change to ...

 keys %{ $json_decoded->{$key1} }

instead of ...

keys $json_decoded->{$key1}

... I get the message "Script died: Not a HASH reference at".

Can you help me with the right syntax please to get it run on every Perl version?

Thanks & regards

de Michi
