Issue initializing a JSONObject

Question

I\'m trying to initialize a JSONObject with the following string, received from a web service:

\"{
    \"campaignid\": \"8\",
    \"campaignname\": \"Pilotar         


        

Answer 1

Try to rewrite all, in a simplified mode (just for test). I think that you put some invalid character.

Answer 2

Seems like you are trying to instantiate it from a String with extra quotes. You need to remove the wrapping quotes(I'm not using your string, but giving an example to make it clearer):

This is OK:

String jStr= "{\"param1\":\"hello\"}";
JSONObject jObj = new JSONObject(jStr);

This is not:

String jStr= "\"{\"param1\":\"hello\"}\"";
//  note this ^^             and this ^^ 
JSONObject jObj = new JSONObject(jStr);

Answer 3

Try to remove All the "\" caracters
