I get this error in my Log: JSONException: No value for Summary. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Here is the full error : org.json.JSONException: No value for Summary at org.json.JSONObject.get(JSONObject.java:354) at org.json.JSONObject.getString(JSONObject.java:514) at com.onebackforlife.orla.stormy.MainActivity.getCurrentDetails(MainActivity.java:121) at com.onebackforlife.orla.stormy.MainActivity.access$100(MainActivity.java:28) at com.onebackforlife.orla.stormy.MainActivity$1.onResponse(MainActivity.java:77) at com.squareup.okhttp.Call$AsyncCall.execute(Call.java:168) at com.squareup.okhttp.internal.NamedRunnable.run(NamedRunnable.java:33) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1080) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:573) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841)

Here is MainActivity - But I don't get where the error is coming from...

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

When you use currently.getString("Summary") summary need to be all lowercase.
