You could use a regular expression replace:

```
var jsonString = '{"caseFolderId":"{2854EE70-146A-4618-826C-BA33FC807A25}","caseTaskId":"{28BE9F56-A7D7-4CA5-B777-A51FF3847236}","stepName":"Item details","columns":{"DV_NAMECL_POS_ODA":"Tieleman Transport BV","DV_MATNR_TXZ01_POS_ODA":"445811 - EUROPRENE SBR 1500 GUC BOX 1110 P150 - 1","F_StepName":"Item details","DV_Caseidentifier_for_eni_OdA":null,"DV_MENGE_MEINS_POS_ODA":"20.000 - KG","DV_PEINH_POS":"1000 - KG","DV_NETPR_WAERS_POS_ODA":"1.000 - EUR","DV_EINDT_ODA":"2015/11/28","DV_EBELP_ODA":"00010"},"DV_Caseidentifier_for_eni_OdA":null,"DV_EBELP_ODA":"00010","DV_EINDT_ODA":"2015/11/28","DV_MATNR_TXZ01_POS_ODA":"445811 - EUROPRENE SBR 1500 GUC BOX 1110 P150 - 1","DV_NAMECL_POS_ODA":"Tieleman Transport BV","DV_NETPR_WAERS_POS_ODA":"1.000 - EUR","DV_PEINH_POS":"1000 - KG","DV_MENGE_MEINS_POS_ODA":"20.000 - KG"}';
jsonString = jsonString.replace(/("{|}")/gi,'"');
console.log(jsonString);
```

i have this code  
the object came from an http request and it’s a json file

for(var i=0;i\<response.queueElements.length;i++){  
var newObject = {  
//forse togliere elementi e columns  
//elementi:response.queueElements[i],  
caseFolderId:response.queueElements[i].caseFolderId,  
caseTaskId:response.queueElements[i].caseTaskId,  
stepName:response.queueElements[i].stepName,  
columns:response.queueElements[i].columns,  
DV\_Caseidentifier\_for\_eni\_OdA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_Caseidentifier\_for\_eni\_OdA,  
DV\_EBELP\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_EBELP\_ODA,  
DV\_EINDT\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_EINDT\_ODA,  
DV\_MATNR\_TXZ01\_POS\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_MATNR\_TXZ01\_POS\_ODA,  
DV\_NAMECL\_POS\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_NAMECL\_POS\_ODA,  
DV\_NETPR\_WAERS\_POS\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_NETPR\_WAERS\_POS\_ODA,  
DV\_PEINH\_POS: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_PEINH\_POS,  
DV\_MENGE\_MEINS\_POS\_ODA: response.queueElements[i].columns.DV\_MENGE\_MEINS\_POS\_ODA  
};  
newArray.push(newObject);  
[//console.log](https://console.log)("nuovo oggetto " + newObject);  
console.log("dettaglio " + newObject.DV\_MENGE\_MEINS\_POS\_ODA + " " + newObject.stepName + " " + newObject.DV\_EINDT\_ODA);

//anche qui ho tutto il JSON  
$rootScope.newObjectJSON.push(JSON.stringify(newObject));  
console.log("rootScope.newObjectJSON " + $rootScope.newObjectJSON);  
// $rootScope.newObjectJSON = JSON.stringify(newObject);

//DA TESTARE  
jsonString = $rootScope.newObjectJSON;  
jsonStringArray = jsonString.replace(/("{|}")/gi,’"’);

console.log("senza parentesi "+jsonStringArray);

thee log say  
TypeError: Object [object Array] has no method ‘replace’

any suggestion? Thanks

Look at my example… I was running the replace on a string… you’re trying to run it on an array…
