Converting json table to luau and vice versa

[weakroblox35]

Is there a way to convert this json table to luau and vice versa?
This is my json table.

{
    "weakroblox35": {
            "level": 29
        }
}

but when I use a luau table and encode it to json it looks like this.

this is what I used.
HttpService:JSONEncode({ weakroblox35 = "level: 29" })

JSONEncode accepts 1 argument - the JSON table as a string. Make sure the table you provide to JSONEncode is a string.

Yeah I tried and figured, but is there a way to fetch the json table from the api and use it as a body in RequestAsync to prevent overwriting?

This is wrong. JSONDecode is the one that requires the JSON string, as it is decoding said string in to a Roblox table.

I tried doing it that but my json table turns out like this.

local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")
local function get()
	local response = HttpService:RequestAsync({
		Url = "jsonbinthing", 
		Method = "GET",
		Headers = {
			["X-Master-Key"] = "key",
			["X-BIN-META"] = "false"
		},
	})
	print(response.Body)
	return response.Body
end
local function request()
	local body = HttpService:JSONDecode(get())
	print(body)
	local response = HttpService:RequestAsync({
		Url = "jsonbinthing", 
		Method = "PUT",
		Headers = {
			["Content-Type"] = "application/json", 
			["X-Master-Key"] = "key"
		},
		Body = HttpService:JSONEncode(table.pack({testvalue = {level = 43} }, body)),
	})

	if response.Success then
		print("Status code:", response.StatusCode, response.StatusMessage)
		print("Response body:\n", response.Body)
	else
		print("The request failed:", response.StatusCode, response.StatusMessage)
	end
end

local success, message = pcall(request)
if not success then
	print("Http Request failed:", message)
end

What I’m basically trying to do is, version the json.

local HtppService = game:GetService("HttpService")
print(HtppService:JSONDecode("{\"weakroblox35\":{\"level\":29}}"))

Output:

16:55:08.841   ▼  {
                    ["weakroblox35"] =  ▼  {
                       ["level"] = 29
                    }
                 }  -  Server - Script:2

local HtppService = game:GetService("HttpService")
print(HtppService:JSONEncode({
	weakroblox35 = {
		level = 29
	}
}))

Output:
