Currently working with an API, and while I have successfully gotten it to decode the full result, I am only interested in the Entities/identifier portion. While I have gotten it working and get what I want/need I feel like this could be done better and more elegant and maybe in a single step. Any insight/suggestions appreciated.
JSON returned from API:
