✅

The keys you have used are actually not a good way of implementation. 

{
    "columns[0][data]": "0", 
    "columns[1][name]": "", 
    "columns[5][searchable]": "true", 
    "columns[5][name]": "", 
    "columns[4][search][regex]": "false", 
    "order[0][dir]": "asc", 
    "length": "10", 
}

Instead of this you should hav gone for 

{
    "columns": [
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": "", "search": {
            "regex": "false"}
        },
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": ""," search": {
            "regex": "false"}},
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": "", "search": {
            "regex": "false"}},
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": "", "search": {
            "regex": "false"}},
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": "", "search": {
            "regex": "false"}},
        {"data": "0", "name": "", "searchable": "true", "name": "", "search": {
            "regex": "false"}},
    ],
    "order": [
        {"dir": "asc"}
    ],
    "length": "10"
}

In this case ajax_data[‘order’][0][‘dir] will result in value “asc”

For your current implementation the key is “order[0][dir]”

That is go for

ajax_data["order[0][dir]"]

Hope you understood the issue.

Structuring of json is very important when dealing with APIs. Try to restructure your json which will help for future too.

That’s because length is a key in that json object, and order is not. The key names are the entire strings inside the quotes: columns[0][data], order[0][dir], etc.

Those are unusual key names, but perfectly valid.
