Getting list in JSON at Python Flask [duplicate]

Question

I want to get the "Data" list passed from my javascript to python FLASK APP and than work on the list "Data" JavaScript code to send is

function fetch()
    {
     var jsonObj={'email':"[email protected]",'Data': ['Name','Phone']};
      $.ajax({
                 url:'http://192.168.56.102:5000/fetch',
                 data:jsonObj,
                 type:"POST",
                 dataType:"json",
                 crossDomain:true
             }).done(function(result){console.log(result)}).fail(function(result){console.log("error")});
    }

The Python FLASK code is

@app.route("/fetch", methods=["POST"])
def fetch():
    print request.json
    return jsonify({"Status":200})

from the print statement above I get

ImmutableMultiDict([('Data[]', u'Name'), ('Data[]', u'Phone'), ('email', u'[email protected]')])

But I want to get something like this

ImmutableMultiDict( { 'email': '[email protected]', 'Data' : ['Name','Email'] } )

In short I want to get the list in server side so send by JSON.

PS : I have already tried How to get a JSON Object in Python (Flask Framework) but on implementing this I am getting

ImmutableMultiDict([])

You need to convert the data to JSON yourself, and use contentType to set the content-type header.

$.ajax({
   url:'http://192.168.56.102:5000/fetch',
   data: JSON.stringify(jsonObj),
   type:"POST",
   contentType:"application/json",
   ...
