How to create JSON Object using String?

In contrast to what the accepted answer proposes, the documentation says that for JSONArray() you must use put(value) no add(value).

https://developer.android.com/reference/org/json/JSONArray.html#put(java.lang.Object)

(Android API 19-27. Kotlin 1.2.50)

org.json.JSONArray may be what you want.

String message;
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
json.put("name", "student");

JSONArray array = new JSONArray();
JSONObject item = new JSONObject();
item.put("information", "test");
item.put("id", 3);
item.put("name", "course1");
array.put(item);

json.put("course", array);

message = json.toString();

// message
// {"course":[{"id":3,"information":"test","name":"course1"}],"name":"student"}

If you use the gson.JsonObject you can have something like that:

import com.google.gson.JsonObject;
import com.google.gson.JsonParser;

String jsonString = "{'test1':'value1','test2':{'id':0,'name':'testName'}}"
JsonObject jsonObject = (JsonObject) jsonParser.parse(jsonString)

 String jsonString = "{'element1':'value1','element2':{'id':0,'name':'testName'}}";
        JsonObject jsonObject = (JsonObject) JsonParser.parseString(jsonString);
