parseJSON

To convert a JSON string to a JSON object

This function converts a string to a JSON object.

The string needs to be written as a valid JSON object. Otherwise, the function will return unuseful stuff. Not good. 🐸

This can be quite handy if you need to modify a JSON object and pass it on in the http() function.

Syntax

parseJSON(string)

JSON

Examples

parseJSON(jsonString) To convert a JSON string to a JSON object.
