Parse response from Consul in Bash
I am using bash to get a value back from Consul, I have the API call working but can't seem to get the parsing down. I have tried regex and also jq but neither seem to work. Below is the results of the API call that I need to parse. I am trying to get the MTA3NDE5 from it.
How can I get that value from what the API call returns?
[{"LockIndex":0,"Key":"syncID/master","Flags":0,"Value":"MTA3NDE5","CreateIndex":1951278,"ModifyIndex":1952289}]
command-line bash json

You should be able to use something simple like jq -r '.."Value"'
Ex.
$ echo '[{"LockIndex":0,"Key":"syncID/master","Flags":0,"Value":"MTA3NDE5","CreateIndex":1951278,"ModifyIndex":1952289}]' |
jq -r '.."Value"'
MTA3NDE5

Here's one way:
walt@bat:~(0)$ echo '[{"LockIndex":0,"Key":"syncID/master","Flags":0,"Value":"MTA3NDE5","CreateIndex":1951278,"ModifyIndex":1952289}]' |
grep -E -o '"Value":"[^"]*"' | cut -d: -f2 | tr -d '"'
