How to replace a string with a single backslash using gsub in R?
3 answers
I have a string that looks like this:
["playerId":104,"participantId":"1509032316400100006","startHole":0,"thru":0,"roundScores":["round":1,"strokes":75],"roundHoleScores":]
It's almost in JSON format except that the quotes are escaped. I want to use jsonlite::fromJSON() on it but it won't work because of the escaped quotes.
Does anybody know how I can treat that string as JSON?
Thanks!

Are you sure the quotes are escaped in the string? R adds escapes when itprint()s the value of a character variable to the terminal but those escapes aren't really in the string. Is that you've show what R shows you, or is this some raw text file you are looking at? It's easier to help if you provide a proper reproducible example with code and data we can copy/paste into R to see exactly what you're working with. If they are escaped in the raw data, how exactly did it get that way to begin with?
