Get value from a JSON

I have a JSON that looks like this, it comes from a knockout array and has been converted. I simply want to content this to a single object to send to a service.

[{\"NotePadID\":-1,\"UserID\":\"NIGOV\\\\\\\\dard-lytts\",\"DateInput\":\"08/28/2014\",\"CategoryID\":6,\"SubCategoryName\":\"Active Farmer\",\"DateCreated\":\"08/28/2014\",\"Note\":\"test\"}]

This comes as an array how would I get the first, ie 

  var test = jsonConverted[0]['CategoryID'];

Always returns undifined. What I actually want to do is just pass a single object to my ajax, should be simple but not working.

you can try this and follow the "Demo"

var stringiFiedArray = "[{\"NotePadID\":-1,\"UserID\":\"NIGOV\\\\\\\\dard-lytts\",\"DateInput\":\"08/28/2014\",\"CategoryID\":6,\"SubCategoryName\":\"Active Farmer\",\"DateCreated\":\"08/28/2014\",\"Note\":\"test\"}]";

var javasArrar = JSON.parse(stringiFiedArray);
alert(javasArrar[0]["CategoryID"]);

using javascript you can do it like

var a = '[{\"NotePadID\":-1,\"UserID\":\"NIGOV\\\\\\\\dard-lytts\",\"DateInput\":\"08/28/2014\",\"CategoryID\":6,\"SubCategoryName\":\"Active Farmer\",\"DateCreated\":\"08/28/2014\",\"Note\":\"test\"}]'
return JSON.parse(a)[0]['CategoryID']
