I cannot import JSONObject, I thought this was something that came with java and an external jar is not needed, why is it saying it cannot find it?

No - JsonObject is only in JavaEE. JSONObject isn't included in JavaSE, it needs an external library. You can find it on github. However, if you use JavaEE, it is included.

If you are using gradle, add the following to your build.gradle file (available in maven central):

dependencies {
    compile "org.json:json:20171018"
}
