How to escape special characters in building a JSON string?

Question

Here is my string

{
    \'user\': {
        \'name\': \'abc\',
        \'fx\': {
            \'message\': {
                \'color\': \'red\'
            }         


        

Answer 1

May be i am too late to the party but this will parse/escape single quote (don't want to get into a battle on parse vs escape)..

JSON.parse("\"'\"")
