I have a VidyoPortal that gives me its responses formatted this way through its event notification system: **VDY\x00\x00\xFA**{"sequenceNum":1549002625629,"roomNotification":null,"userNotification":{"referenceNumber":null,"applicationName":null,"applicationVersion":null,"deviceModel":null,"endpointPublicIPAddress":"","accessType":"","roomType":"","roomOwner":"","applicationOs":null,"callCompletionCode":"0","extension":null,"endpointGUID":"BA8-0200323238353132-8C53EC8501659CFF","participantId":0,"roomID":0,"audioState":0,"videoState":0,"extData":null,"extDataType":0,"conferenceName":null,"callerName":null,"tenantName":null,"callState":"Online","uniqueCallID":null,"conferenceType":null,"endpointType":"D","callerID":null,"direction":null,"routerID":null,"gwid":null,"gwprefix":null},"alert":null,"creationTimestamp":3589263127594056,"queueTimestamp":3589263127646846,"wireTimestamp":3589263128426891,"externalStatusNotificationUrl":null,"externalUsername":null,"externalPassword":null,"plainTextExternalPassword":null,"vidyoStatusNotificationUrl":null,"vidyoUsername":null,"vidyoPassword":null,"plainTextVidyoPassword":null,"tenantId":0} I need to remove the leading set of characters to get it as properly formatted JSON. Also, with some of the messages i'm getting nested JSON that has those characters in the body of the message. I have also found it in both this format (VDY\x00\x00\xFA) and this format (VDY\x00\x00) Can anyone assist with the regex i can use when querying to remove those characters? without them the JSON is properly formatted and i can work with it. ...
