Yes, this is possible. Stamp your JSON format to the respective field and insert the record.

I tried directly saving the JSON data in the console to the text area field. It works!

HI Poorna,
I have come across similar posts by others users which might help you

Please have a look at this post http://sudipta-deb.blogspot.in/2014/10/json-parsing-with-apex-in-salesforce_17.html

The above link will tell you how to parse and display JSON Data into Tabular format. Now in order to store the same into sObject use below functionality-

public class CountryController {
private List<CountryDataWrapper> countryDataWrapper;

public void parseJSONData(){
    countryDataWrapper = new ParseMultipleJsonData().parse();
    insertCountryInformation();
}

public List<CountryDataWrapper> getCountries(){
    return countryDataWrapper;
}

private void insertCountryInformation(){
    List<Country__c> allCountries = new List<Country__c>();
    for(CountryDataWrapper aCountryDataWrapper : countryDataWrapper){

        allCountries.add(new Country__c(
            Name = aCountryDataWrapper.countryName,
            Capital__c = aCountryDataWrapper.countryCapital,
            Currency__c = aCountryDataWrapper.countryCurrency
        ));
    }
    Database.insert(allCountries);
}
}

Hi poorna,

You need to create a wrapper class to parse this JSON

 

public class NewUser{

       public Double UserId;
       public  Double Id;
       public  String Title;
       public  String Body;

}

and then in your code use it
  
List<NewUser> allUsers = (List<NewUser>)JSON.deserialize(response.getBody(),List<NewUser>.class);
    for( NewUser user: allUsers) {
        NewUsers__c newUser = new NewUsers__c();
        newUser.UserId__c = user.UserId;
        newUser.Id__c= user.Id;
        newUser.Title__c = user.Title;
        newUser.Body__c = user.Body;
        newallUsers.add(newUser);    
    }

If you find this helpful mark it as the best answer.

Hi,
I'm created a custom object named - Application__c with the following fields.
Apply_Date--c, Approve_Date_c,Reason_c,Status__c and Data__c.
In the field Data__C i need to store the following JSON data 
{"data":{"expires_at":"2021-04-02T07:34:43Z","redirect_url":"https://www.saltedge.com/dashboard/connect?token=96f20d2a009f87a2f512bf9739bdsdw02e5d5d840ee692ssdewe3w22ws8235326bd0e41e0b8dbac"}}.

Is possible?
