Decode JSON String in Java

Question

How can I decode this JSON String which has been received as a parameter via the ajax call. This String is basically a Javascript Array which has been passed using JSON.stringify.

The format received at my Java End is something like this.

%5B%22Name%22%2C%22Vivek%22%2C%

how can i decode this String so that I can create a JSONArray from it using

JSONArray.fromObject

because passing the above mentioned format throws an error

It looks like it is URL encoded. Try decoding it before parsing.

String decodedString = java.net.URLDecoder.decode("%5B%22Name%22%2C%22Vivek%22%2C%", "UTF-8");
JSONArray json = new JSONArray(decodedString);
