Cannot get the value of an ArrayBuffer Object in Javascript

I have an ArrayBuffer object that I need to be able to convert to String to JSON, but I can't get the value of the [Int8Array] out of the object, even though it is clearly there.

enter image description here

I've tried all variations on this, but they all return undefined

console.log(result);//Returns the array buffer
//Following methods all return undefined?
console.log(result["[[Int8Array]]"]);
console.log(result[[[Int8Array]]]);
console.log(result[[["Int8Array"]]]);
console.log(result[Int8Array]);
console.log(result["Int8Array"]);

How can I get all the Int8Array or UInt8Array values that are clearly available in the object?

You can use the textDecoder that accepts ArrayBuffer (as well as uint8array) without having to deal with Uint8array's:

var str = new TextDecoder().decode(arrayBuffer)
var json = JSON.parse(str)

if you want to get straight to json

var json = await new Response(arrayBuffer).json()

You need to intiantiate a new Uint8Array to get their values, you can't access them directly using your ArrayBuffer instance.

var buf = new ArrayBuffer(8);
var int8view = new Uint8Array(buf);
console.log(int8view)
