Parse JSON with Ruby -

i have 2 json returns.

one able parse fine

{"login"=>"foo", "id"=>bar, 

with

@foobar_collect["login"] 

but 1 having issues with

{"items"=>[{"user_id"=>foo, "user_type"=>"bar",  

i try

@foobar_collect["items"]["user_id"] 

and gives me error no implicit conversion of string integer
