Parsing Tablepress table with PHP

Hi

I’m trying to parse a Tablepress table using my own PHP and treating the post_content as JSON, but I cannot get the table to read correctly as JSON data.

The data as stored does not look or function like proper JSON data. Even testing the data using export to JSON doesn’t seem to create proper formatted JSON data.

I just want to read the column names and data as posted in the post_content.
