Hi. When I pull the API data into a Ruby on Rails web app, I think it should be a Hash object, but for some reason, I'm unable to run any Hash methods on it.
Example for Mexico is below. Despite the square brackets, It doesn't seem to be an Array either. I tried running both Hash methods and Array methods on the parsed body, and simply got a Nil Class error: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
Any idea how I might be able to resolve? I would like to get the parsed response body, and then run several Hash methods on it in my rails program.Thanks!
