I believe the user process in erlang is what does IO, if I remember correctly. How large is the JSON string? Have you tried parsing it while not in the console?

It is really large, it has list of jsons that has 2 lists of embedded jsons. No, I haven’t tried it out of the console yet, I was just trying to visualize how it would be parsed before writing the actual code.

I believe you should try it in the console because I am not sure your original error is related.

The json response was very complicated to trace at once. I’m now able to decode it at multiple steps.
