How to use "allHeaders" option but only return row 1 (ie 2nd row)

ozbrewer opened this issue · comments

I'm calling ImportJSON and need to preserve the order of the json fields, so have to specify allHeaders option. But I only want to return the 2nd row from the urlfetch.
Being a relative newbie to coding, I'm struggling to tell importJSON to preserve the order AND return only the 2nd row.
Any help on syntax please?

Here is the function I wrote that creates the url (works) and passes it to the importJSON function specifying just the fields I'm looking for to be returned - but the order must be retained.

And yes, my cacheservice lines are commented out as I'm struggling to get them to work as well.

Thanks

Can close this issue, Learned that I can call the function from google sheets using Index and return only the 2nd row. I now call the function as follows:
=INDEX(YFTechnicals(CBA.AX),1,0)
