JSON.parse returns an object code example

Example 1: json parse returns object

var str = '[{"UserName":"xxx","Rolename":"yyy"}]'; // your response in a string
    var parsed = JSON.parse(str); // an *array* that contains the user
    var user = parsed[0];         // a simple user
    console.log(user.UserName);   // you'll get xxx
    console.log(user.Rolename);   // you'll get yyy

Example 2: what does json.parse do

The JSON.parse() method parses a JSON string, constructing the JavaScript value or object described by the string. An optional reviver function can be provided to perform a transformation on the resulting object before it is returned.
