Response (Javascript, Jquery) not an object?

Question

I ran the copied code to generate the API results; in doing so, the response I get is not an object––despite it supposedly being one. Thus, there is no way for me to access the keys/values conveniently. Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you so much! That worked :)

Add the following line to the settings variable:

`"dataType": "json",`

This should make the returned response an object.

The code I'm using is follows:
const settings = {
	"async": true,
	"crossDomain": true,
	"url": "https://streaming-availability.p.rapidapi.com/search/basic?country=us&service=netflix&type=movie&genre=18&page=1&output_language=en&language=en",
	"method": "GET",
	"headers": {
		"x-rapidapi-host": "streaming-availability.p.rapidapi.com",
		"x-rapidapi-key": ""
	}
};

$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
	console.log(response);
});
I'm trying to manipulate the *response*.

Can you paste the code you are using here? (Make sure to remove your API key)
