I have a Web API which is returning a response in JSON, in this format: 

{
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "password": null,
  "accessLevel": 2
}

I am trying to access the accessLevel field within that response, but I am getting this Angular error: 

Error in resource configuration for action `query`. Expected response to contain an array but got an object (Request: GET http://localhost:51608/api/[email protected]...)

This is my Angular resource code (below), I just added the isArray false to attempt to solve the issue: 

function userRoleResource($resource, appSettings) {
    return $resource(appSettings.serverPath + "/api/UserRole?email=:email", { email: '@email' },
    {
        get: {
            method: 'GET',
            isArray: false
        }
    });
}

And this is how I am attempting to use the data: 

userRoleResource.query({ email: vm.userData.email },
   function (data) {
      vm.userData.accessLevel = data.AccessLevel;
});

you're specifying that the 'get' function is not an array, but you're using the 'query' function.

try this:

userRoleResource.get({ email: vm.userData.email },
    function (data) {
        vm.userData.accessLevel = data.AccessLevel;
});
