how to get only the html part from this message? I cannot loop through the object as it is a string, from this entire data i want only the html part of the message. can you help me with this?

Answer 1

Use JSON.parse() to parse the response string to a JSON object. From there, you can use standard property access to get the values you need.

Example:

const data = JSON.parse(....);
const html = data.html;
const subject = data.headers.subject;
