Read Json Object in Powershell 2.0
You probably have the System.Web.Extensions available, and as such you can load that assembly and use the JSON parser that is available. Here is a quick sample:
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Web.Extensions")$json = "{a:1,b:2,c:{nested:true}}"$ser = New-Object System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer$obj = $ser.DeserializeObject($json)
