Convert to a JSON object, put the data in, convert back to string — Matthew Diana, Oct 18 '16 at 20:02
Do you want to convert the string to an object, or do you just want to replace the value in the JSON string? — OneCricketeer, Oct 18 '16 at 20:03

The cleanest way is convert Json to object, change values, and convert again to String Json:

Other methods:

If exists only one occurence of value in Json String, and you know current value, use: String.replace("oldValue", "newValue");
Use String.replaceAll("regex", "newValue"); and regular expression
Use some external library e.g.: https://github.com/stleary/JSON-java.
