Retrieving value based on another value from a nested key:value list

Question

I am working with a nested list of dictionaries and want to retrieve a value based on another value within the same item. An example of the data would be:

'''[{'name': 'foo', 'id': 3327}, {'name': 'bar','id': 3360}]'''

Ultimately I want to acquire the id of an object when only the name is known (sourced elsewhere as a variable). Could anyone offer assistance on querying the list by it's name and returning the value for the related id key?

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Craig
