How do i call API with multiple parameters in android studio

Question

I have created this app that pulls data from an API and shows it in a list. the problem I am having is that I can't pull the JSON data from an API with a nested JSON array.
In this image it is simple since all the info is in one array / table.

but in this image, it is more difficult for me. for example, how do i call the paragraph value: line in body?

This is the code that i am currently using to pull data from API.
private  void parseJSON () {
    String url = "https://blah,com";

JsonObjectRequest request = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET,url,null,
            new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {

@Override
        public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {

try {
                JSONArray jsonArray =response.getJSONArray("items");

for (int i = 0; i< jsonArray.length(); i++){
                    JSONObject article = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);

String authorName = article.getString("article_author");
                    String imageUrl = article.getString("src");
                    String published = article.getString("first_published_at");
                    String description = article.getString("value");
                    String headline = article.getString("title");

Solution: If you want to pass multiple parameters to your request then, Map params = new HashMap(); params.put("first_param", 1); params.put("second_param", 2); JSONObject parameters = new JSONObject(params); JsonObjectRequest jsonRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.POST, url, parameters, new Response.Listener() { ... } Solution: If you want to pull the items array and get its subsequent object contents, try using an iterator instead of a for loop, JSONArray jsonArray = (JSONArray) apiResult[0].get("body"); Iterator jsonArrayIterator = jsonArray.iterator(); while(jsonArrayIterator.hasNext()) { JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) jsonArrayIterator.next(); JSONObject jsonValue = (JSONObject) jsonObject.get("value"); JSONObject jsonOriginal = (JSONObject) jsonValue.get("original"); JSONObject jsonWidth = (JSONObject) jsonOriginal.get("width"); }

Your question is not quiet clear, but what from what I understand I do think you need this solutions:

Solution: Sending Parameters along with the Request

JsonObjectRequest jsonObjectRequest = new JsonObjectRequest
    (Request.Method.GET, url, null, new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {

@Override
public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
    textView.setText("Response: " + response.toString());
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {

@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
    // TODO: Handle error

}
}){
   @Override
   protected Map<String, String> getParams() throws AuthFailureError {
       Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<>();
       params.put("parameter1 name","parameter1 Value");
       params.put("parameter2 name","parameter2 Value");
       return params;
};

As in the above example I have shown a get request; So suppose the URL is: "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXEIUll8VvOqRN-OSZ5_aOg" and parameter is "view_as" and parameter value is "subscriber" then params.put("view_as","subscriber");
