Javascript parse a string with commas

I am getting this string from my api call:

"{'attachments': [{'type': 'html', 'html': 'text-test'}, {'type': 'album', 'album': [{'url': 'htps://s3.eu-central-8f7ba8d118dbf1/pic/cdyegkwkaije7720e2f72.jpg', 'type': 'image'}]}]}"

I need to find a way to parse it and be able to iterate over the items in attachments list, but when I try to run JSON.parse(str) I am getting an error, I guess because the word attachments has commas around it.

The error is Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ' in JSON at position 1 at JSON.parse

How can I decode it to be able to reach the attachments?

Answer

you have to replace ‘ with ” . try this

var jsonStr ="{'attachments': [{'type': ..." //your api string

jsonStr = jsonStr.replaceAll("'",""");
var result = JSON.parse(jsonStr);
