Why can't Python parse this JSON data?

Question

I have this JSON in a file:

{
    \"maps\": [
        {
            \"id\": \"blabla\",
            \"iscategorical\         


        

Answer 1

Here you go with modified data.json file:

{
    "maps": [
        {
            "id": "blabla",
            "iscategorical": "0"
        },
        {
            "id": "blabla",
            "iscategorical": "0"
        }
    ],
    "masks": [{
        "id": "valore"
    }],
    "om_points": "value",
    "parameters": [{
        "id": "valore"
    }]
}

You can call or print data on console by using below lines:

import json
from pprint import pprint
with open('data.json') as data_file:
    data_item = json.load(data_file)
pprint(data_item)

Expected output for print(data_item['parameters'][0]['id']):

{'maps': [{'id': 'blabla', 'iscategorical': '0'},
          {'id': 'blabla', 'iscategorical': '0'}],
 'masks': [{'id': 'valore'}],
 'om_points': 'value',
 'parameters': [{'id': 'valore'}]}

Expected output for print(data_item['parameters'][0]['id']):
