What makes it look like JSON to you? (I'm not arguing, I'm asking what

If I cut-and-paste the OP's structure into the REPL, it replies with a
valid Python structure that's equivalent (albeit with single-quotes
instead of double-quotes).
So I guess I'm only partially arguing. I agree that it therefore looks
like it's not REPL output, but perhaps the actual input that the OP
needs to deal with (from whatever). Still not exclusively JSON though ;)
To the OP: start a Python shell and paste your structure as follows:
foo =
[{"itemNumber":"75-5044","inventory":[{"warehouseCode":"UT1-US","quantityAvailable":0.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"KY1US","quantityAvailable":0.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"TX-1-US","quantityAvailable":14.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"CA-1-US","quantityAvailable":4.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"AB-1-CA","quantityAvailable":1.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"WA-1-US","quantityAvailable":0.0000000000000},{"warehouseCode":"PO-1-CA","quantityAvailable":0.0000000000000}]}]
Now you can interrogate your structure interactively to see what might
be a good way of "reading through it" (you don't say what you actually
want to do).
What does "foo[0]" show.
What does "foo[0]['inventory'] show?
What does "foo[0]['inventory'][1] show?
What does "foo[0]['inventory'][1]['warehouseCode'] show?
It's just lists (arrays) and dicts (key/value pairs).
