Properly get JSON value from objects

[don-lukas-ziegler]

Hey there,
I want to populate dropdown menus with reference fields from a collection. My code for this:

$w.onReady(function () {
	$w('#gegner').onReady( () => {
		const gegner = $w('#gegner').getCurrentItem();
		$w('#wechselData').onReady( () => {
			const wechselJSON = JSON.stringify(gegner.wechselIndikator);
			const wechsel = wechselJSON.slice(8, wechselJSON.length-2);
			const wechselOptions = $w('#wechselIndikator').options;
			let index = 0;
			wechselOptions.forEach((option) => {
				if (wechsel === option.value) {
					$w('#wechselIndikator').selectedIndex = index;
				}
				index++;
			});
		});
	});
});

Is this the only way to read JSON values? (it does work like this)
