You could use BundleFile class: [https://www.fusetools.com/developers/api/uno/bundlefile](https://www.fusetools.com/developers/api/uno/bundlefile)

```auto
BundleFile file = import BundleFile("Assets/data.json");
var reader = JsonReader.Parse(file.ReadAllText());

```

Minerals App Development Team: Currently it is not possible in FuseJS, you have to use Uno like Alexander bladyko suggests.

We are working rapidly on expanding the FuseJS APIs, so I’m sure we’ll ship support for this shortly!

Try something like this:

```auto
var storage = require('FuseJS/Storage');
var obj;
storage.read("filename.json").then(function(content) {
    console.log(content);
    obj = JSON.parse(content);
}, function(error) {
    console.log(error);
    obj = {};
});

```

Arunvel: you’re going to have to give us some more information to go on here. What isn’t working? How does it fail? Is there an error? What does the debug output say? What version of Fuse are you using? Which target are you trying this for? Etc.

You need to save the file first, storage is for files that your app first stores and then wants to read. If you want to read a file in your bundle, this is what @Jake suggests:

jake [2:26 AM] if you want it to be in a separate file, you can put it in a separate .js file and expose it with `module.exports`

​[2:27] then you can `require` it like any other external JS module

​[2:28] as an example:

​[2:31] take your json and put it into a .js file, like this:

```auto
module.exports = // your json

```

Then in a ux file, import it like this:

```auto
<JavaScript File="MyJson.js" ux:Global="MyJson" />

```

Finally, in JS:

```auto
var MyJson = require("MyJson");

// At this point MyJson now represents the object from your JSON

```
