convert a string JSON into an Array

Question

I have the following string

"[
  {
    "userId": 1,
    "id": 1,
    "title": "delectus aut autem",
    "completed": false
  },
   {
    "userId": 1,
    "id": 5,
    "title": "laboriosam mollitia et enim quasi adipisci quia provident illum",
    "completed": false
  }
]"

How can i convert this string into a JSON?

It is already JSON. Are you asking how to parse the JSON as JS array? — Felix Kling, Jan 14 '20 at 17:46

You would need to use JSON.parse()

JSON.parse(str)

Use JSON.parse() and replace the starting and ending " with backticks

JSON.parse(`[
  {
    "userId": 1,
    "id": 1,
    "title": "delectus aut autem",
    "completed": false
  },
   {
    "userId": 1,
    "id": 5,
    "title": "laboriosam mollitia et enim quasi adipisci quia provident illum",
    "completed": false
  }
]`)
