If you trust the data source  you can use eval to convert your string into a dictionary   eval your json format string   Example    gt  gt  gt  x      a    1   b    True   c     C     gt  gt  gt  y   eval x    gt  gt  gt  print x   a    1   b    True   c     C    gt  gt  gt  print y   a   1   c    C    b   True    gt  gt  gt  print type x   type y   lt type  str  gt   lt type  dict  gt    gt  gt  gt  print y  a    type y  a    1  lt type  int  gt    gt  gt  gt  print y  a    type y  b    1  lt type  bool  gt    gt  gt  gt  print y  a    type y  c    1  lt type  str  gt
