How do I handle newlines in JSON?

I\'ve generated some JSON and I\'m trying to pull it into an object in JavaScript. I keep getting errors. Here\'s what I have:

var data = \'{\"count\" : 1, \         


        

Answer 1

JSON.stringify

JSON.stringify(`{ 
  a:"a"
}`)

would convert the above string to

"{ \n      a:\"a\"\n    }"

as mentioned here

json stringify

This function adds double quotes at the beginning and end of the input string and escapes special JSON characters. In particular, a newline is replaced by the \n character, a tab is replaced by the \t character, a backslash is replaced by two backslashes \, and a backslash is placed before each quotation mark.
