    I don't know what you are doing exactly. I pick one extraction of data 

    'Make API call to get detailed metadata for each channel
'Here also use Foreach loop for multiple API call
        ch = "APILink" 'Here File Call From Server
        rxfer.SetUrl(ch)
        raw = rxfer.GetToString()        
        channelJSON = ParseJSON(raw)
        ' create a node for the channel and set its metadata fields
        channelNode = CreateObject("roSGNode", "ContentNode")
        channelNode.title = channelJSON.JSONField ' Here you write JSON Field name
        channelNode.hdposterurl = channelJSON.JSONField

    Here the REST API Documentation.  Here the question of  JSON parsing using Brightscript for Roku app
