[FIXED] How can we update parent header in json file using python?

Issue

In the above JSON file, I have header names like 901, 9x1 and 9x2.

I want to change the header names like this:

• 9x1 to 911
• 9x2 to 912

I have tried following approach using python

tot = [911,912]
data = "above mentioned json file"
    for j in data:
        for i in tot:
           if j == '9x1':
             data[j][0] = i

The JSON file:

{
  "901": [
    {
      "section": "Revision",
      "section": "Appendix A",
      "section": "Region Code",
      "Table": "Region",
      "Bundle": "1.0.0.9",
      "Software": "1.0.0.2",
      "iOS Simulator": "1.1.1.1",
      "Configuration": "1.0.0.1"
    }
  ],
  "9x1": [
    {
      "section": "Revision",
      "section": "Appendix A",
      "section": "Region Code ",
      "Table": "Region",
      "Bundle": "1.0.0.9",
      "Software": "1.0.0.2",
      "iOS Simulator": "1.1.1.1",
      "Configuration": "1.0.0.1"
    }
  ],
  "9x2": [
    {
      "section": "Revision",
      "section": "Appendix A",
      "section": "Region Code",
      "Table": "Region",
      "Bundle": "1.0.0.9",
      "Software": "1.0.0.2",
      "iOS Simulator": "1.1.1.1",
      "Configuration": "1.0.0.1"
    }
  ]
}

Solution

Following should work for you.

tot = [911,912]
data = "above mentioned json file"
for i in tot:
    if '9x1' in data:
        data[i] = data.pop('9x1')

Suggestion:

tot = {'9x1': 911, '9x2': 912}
data = "above mentioned json file"
for old_value, new_value in tot.items():
    if old_value in data:
        data[new_value] = data.pop(old_value)
