Greetings,
I'm trying to decode JSON output of a Java program (jackson) and
having some issues.
The cause of the problem is the following snippet:
{
"description": "... lives\uMOVE™ OFFERS ",
}
Which causes ValueError: Invalid \uXXXX escape.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Is that valid JSON? If not, you'll either need to fix the program which
generated it (or report it as a bug), or pre-process the JSON to
correct the error, if you know what it should be.
If you delete or double the backslash in that one particular spot, the
string will parse, even if it is not correct.
