When using JSON.parse, a correct JSON string may unexpectedly produce a token error

This question has been asked several times before, but the answers provided did not help me. I have a JSON string that looks like this:

var jsonData = {
"target1": [
{"x":"222",
"y":"333",
"WPtext":"go right"},
{"x":"444",
"y":"444",
"WPtext":"go left"}
],
"target2": [
 {"x":"111",
 "y":"123",
"WPtext":"turn left"}
]
};

var waypoints = JSON.parse(jsonData);

When trying to execute the last statement, I encounter an error: unexpected token o. I am having trouble figuring out what is causing this issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely, Chris

Thank you all for the prompt response! I was able to solve it on my own as well: the correct code should be: let jsonData = '{[ ..... ]}' I just realized that the single quotes around the entire string were missing.
