Can use either json or ast python modules:

Using json :
=============

import json
jsonStr = '{"one" : "1", "two" : "2", "three" : "3"}'
json_data = json.loads(jsonStr)
print(f"json_data: {json_data}")
print(f"json_data['two']: {json_data['two']}")

Output:
json_data: {'one': '1', 'two': '2', 'three': '3'}
json_data['two']: 2




Using ast:
==========

import ast
jsonStr = '{"one" : "1", "two" : "2", "three" : "3"}'
json_dict = ast.literal_eval(jsonStr)
print(f"json_dict: {json_dict}")
print(f"json_dict['two']: {json_dict['two']}")

Output:
json_dict: {'one': '1', 'two': '2', 'three': '3'}
json_dict['two']: 2
