how to add new array into my jsonArray

Question

I have a Json var, and I want to add new array into it.

I would like to get:

myJson = {
   "field1":"value1",
   "field2":"value2",
   "newArray":[
       {"array1": "valueArray1"},
       {"array2":"valueArray2"}
   ]
}

var newArray = [{"array1": "valueArray1"},{"array2":"valueArray2"}];

var myJson = {
   "field1":"value1",
   "field2":"value2"
}

var newArray = [{"array1": "valueArray1"},{"array2":"valueArray2"}];


myJson.push(newArray)

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

it return an error:

uncaught TypeError: myJson.push is not a function
at <anonymous>:1:8

why is it incorrect?

please use different names for non JSON objects. your variable with the name myJson is not an array. — Nina Scholz

@AlexandruSeverin it's an object - nothing to do with JSON. JSON is just a method of encoding a string. — Rory McCrossan

Let's set properties instead, because your myJson is object not Array

var myJson = {
   "field1":"value1",
   "field2":"value2"
}

var newArray = [{"array1": "valueArray1"},{"array2":"valueArray2"}];


myJson.newArray = newArray;
console.log(myJson);
