Load youtube playlist with javascript. (sometimes it shows one thing as an array, sometimes it shows it as an object)

[mrchow19910319]

I am trying to feed off a youtube playlist into the webpage, this is the response I get from the API call:

 

Spoiler

notice that "items" is an array in the picture.

but the result i get from: 

console.log(typeof data.items);

is object. 

 

in this picture it shows data.items is array

 

Spoiler

so what it is then?? Array or object?

/*  
Load Playlist
*/

function loadPlayList(data) {

  console.log(data.items);
  console.log(typeof data.items);

  data.items.forEach(
    function (item, index, array) {

      var thumbnail = data.items.snippet.thumbnails.medium.url;

      document.getElementById('youtube_playlist').innerHTML = `
      <div class="individual_list_item">
      <img src="${thumbnail}" alt="video_thumbnail_placeholder" class="thumbnails">
      <div class="video_descriptions">
        <h4 class="playlist_titles">Video Titles</h4>
        <p class="playlist_descriptions">asd</p>
      </div>
    </div>
      `;
    }


  );

}

Arrays are technically objects, that's why typeof returns an object
