How to convert AJAX String response to JSON

Question

My EjB response using AJAX likes this:

"{'Active':{'123','456','789'},'Inactive':{'111','222','333'}}"

I want to convert the above string to JSON objects. JSON objects will be used in JavaScript to draw the map.

Or

I want the same string to get converted like below in JavaScript:

var active = ["123", "456", "789"]; var inactive = ["111", "222", "333"];

Note: I'm using AJAX in JS.

Answer 1

var jsonString = JSON.parse(response);

response is what you get from ajax req (a json string), and jsonString is what you wanted
