I make a bot for the news channel in Telegram, I encountered such a problem: I get json from vk api, but I can't parse it. Tell me how to do this? json view:

response: [{ id: 210700286, first_name: 'Lindsey', last_name: 'Stirling', city: { id: 5331, title: 'Los Angeles' }, photo_50: 'https://pp.vk.me/...f6e/4-funfNRMwg.jpg', verified: 1 }]

I understand that I can not parse it because of the response, but how to remove it?

    The example in question is not json . If it were json, it would not matter where you got it from (you could remove vk, telegram from the question). Try to create a minimal code sample — make a request in any way to vk api and show what you get in response ( print(repr(response)) ). Describe what information you want to extract and what exactly is your problem with the code. If it is possible to make a request to vk outside the telegram, then remove the mention of the telegram from the question (solve one problem at a time). - jfs
