I have a JSON output that contains a list of objects. (I may not be phrasing that right)

[
  {
    "item1": "value1",
    "item2": "value2",
    "sub items": [
      {
        "subitem": "subvalue"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "item1": "value1_2",
    "item2": "value2_2",
    "sub items_2": [
      {
        "subitem_2": "subvalue_2"
      }
    ]
  }
]

I have found a bunch of ways to get the entire result into an array but not just the items I need
