I got this format in json. I need unique values of "volume". So in result I'd get only '30' and '40'. I used loop inside of another loop, but it returns unique values from each product, which is not what I want. I'm using Angular 1 in Ionic.

{

"data": [
    {
        "id": 1,
        "title": "Category title",
        "products": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            },
            {
                "id": 2,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }
        ]
    },

    {
        "id": 2,
        "title": "Another Category title",
        "products": [
            {
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            },
            {
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }
        ]
    }

]

}

Thanks

Try this it will work :

JSON :

var obj = {
    "data": [{
            "id": 1,
            "title": "Category title",
            "products": [{
                "id": 1,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            }, {
                "id": 2,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }]
        },

        {
            "id": 2,
            "title": "Another Category title",
            "products": [{
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            }, {
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }]
        }

    ]

};

Logic implementation :

var arr = [];
for (var item in obj.data) {
  for (var innData in obj.data[item].products) {
   var volume =  obj.data[item].products[innData].volume;
   if(arr.indexOf(volume) == '-1') {
     arr.push(volume);
   }
  }
}

console.log(arr);

Output :

To get the unique values

var uniqueVolumes = $.unique($.map(json.data, function(datum) { 
        return datum.products.map(function(product) { 
                                  return product.volume;
         });
    });
  );

Using core java script you can find like this:

var jsonData = {"data": [
    {
        "id": 1,
        "title": "Category title",
        "products": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            },
            {
                "id": 2,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }
        ]
    },

    {
        "id": 2,
        "title": "Another Category title",
        "products": [
            {
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "40"
            },
            {
                "id": 3,
                "title": "product title",
                "volume": "30"
            }
        ]
    }

]

};
var uniqueArr = [];
var jsonData = jsonData["data"];
var fullObjectLength = Object.keys(jsonData).length
for(var i=0; i<fullObjectLength;i++)
{
	//console.log(jsonData[i]["products"]);
  var jsonProductsLength = jsonData[i]["products"].length;
  for(var j=0; j<jsonProductsLength; j++)
  {
  	 var volumeKeyValue = jsonData[i]["products"][j]["volume"];   
    var itemTobePushedInArray = uniqueArr.indexOf(volumeKeyValue) == -1;
    if(itemTobePushedInArray)
    {
     uniqueArr.push(volumeKeyValue);
     console.log(uniqueArr);
    }
  }
}
