How to store json array values into variables using loop?

[SK36]

Request is from 3rd party tool like : "weekoff" : "[{saturday, sunday}]";

then, I have 7 checkboxes named (monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturday,sunday) on catelog item.

and I want to check saturday & sunday check boxes. How to achieve this?

How to write for loop on this?

I'm assuming your sample text is part of a larger object, so I've used that in my mock up with a hard-coded object.  If not, you can remove the first 'for' and 'if' blocks.  If the value of "weekoff" is truly formatted as above (curly brackets inside of an array, a space after the comma), you'll need the 'replace' lines to convert this to an actual array before the second loop, otherwise there might be a better way to work with the value you're getting, but this works (onLoad Catalog Client Script in this example)...

var obj = {"name1" : "value1", "weekoff" : "[{saturday, sunday}]"};
	for (var field in obj) {
		if (field == "weekoff") {
			var days = obj.weekoff;
			days = days.replace("[", "");
			days = days.replace("{", "");
			days = days.replace("]", "");
			days = days.replace("}", "");
			var daysArr = days.split(", ");
			for (var i=0; i < daysArr.length; i++) {
				g_form.setValue(daysArr[i], true);
			}
		}
	}
