# Extracting data from JSON in javascript

Hi [Developers](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12875/blunders-you-must-avoid-while-hiring-java-developers-to-get-the-best-fulfilling-your-needs),\
\
This is my [JSON](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/34446/convert-json-string-to-object) that I get back (this is what it is after I stringify it):\
\
{"1":"[Water](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/1535/countries-with-the-worst-drinking-water) Accumulation","2":"Water [Preservation](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/43800/quick-tips-for-hair-preservation)","3":"[Release](https://www.mindstick.com/news/2247/apple-plans-to-release-new-macs-in-early-2023) [Target](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81207/small-industries-should-be-the-target-of-economic-relief-package) [Date](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/3869/propose-day-2024-exciting-date-ideas-for-you-and-your-partner)"}\
How can I [extract](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12883/how-to-extract-sub-string-between-two-string-pattern-using-javascript-jquery) this [data](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13050/salesforce-aiming-to-dominate-predictive-analytics-with-data-science) in javascript. I have tried eval, JSON.parse both do not work.\
\
Thanks in [advance](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/33258/jee-mains-and-jee-advance-exams) for any recommendations or solutions.

Hi,\
I couldn't find any problem, but you can try as following\
var a = '{"1":"Water Accumulation","2":"Water Preservation","3":"Release Target Date"}';\
var b = JSON.parse(a);\
console.log(b);console.log(b[1]);console.log(b[2]);console.log(b[3]);Or you can just do\
var b = {"1":"Water Accumulation","2":"Water Preservation","3":"Release Target Date"};\
console.log(b[1]); console.log(b[2]); console.log(b[3]);
