Read json in python after encoding it

Question

I have a json file that fails loading when I use the following code:

indices_json_path = \'file.json\'
with open(indices_json_path) as json_data:
    d = json.lo         


        

Answer 1

This solved the problem:

with io.open(indices_json_path,'r', encoding='UTF-16-LE') as json_data:
    d = json.load(json_data)
