Solution

  • Use pandas.json_normalize

    • With data equal to your sample.
    import pandas as pd
    
    df = pd.json_normalize(data['results']['items'])
    
    # extract lat & long from position
    df[['lat', 'long']] = pd.DataFrame(df.position.tolist(), index=df.index)
    
    # drop position column
    df.drop(columns='position', inplace=True)
    
    # move position x & y to index 3 & 4
    col = df.pop('lat')
    df.insert(3, col.name, col)
    col = df.pop('long')
    df.insert(4, col.name, col)
    
    # remove chainIds from list
    df = df.explode('chainIds')
    
    print(df.head(3))
    
     averageRating chainIds  distance       lat      long having                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               href                                                                              icon                                         id           title                 type                             vicinity                                                                                                                                category.href        category.id category.system     category.title           category.type openingHours.isOpen openingHours.label                                                                          openingHours.structured       openingHours.text alternativeNames

    Just distance with a for-loop

    • distance is inside a list, so you need to iterate through each list to get the value.
    for dist in data['results']['items']:
        print(dist.get('distance'))
