what does "user readable format" mean to you? Do you want us to just guess? — Andrew L

It’s not an array. It’s a string.

Perhaps you mean

var x = "[{\"category_id\":\"2\",\"category_name\":\"Fun\"},{\"category_id\":\"3\",\"category_name\":\"Science\"},{\"category_id\":\"4\",\"category_name\":\"Art\"},{\"category_id\":\"5\",\"category_name\":\"Nature\"}]"

console.log(JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(x)))

Try below code.

   var obj = "[{\"category_id\":\"2\",\"category_name\":\"Fun\"},{\"category_id\":\"3\",\"category_name\":\"Science\"},{\"category_id\":\"4\",\"category_name\":\"Art\"},{\"category_id\":\"5\",\"category_name\":\"Nature\"},...]";

    obj = obj.replace(/\\/g, '');
    console.log(obj);
