How to convert JSON array property value from arrays to keys

I am a beginner programmer trying to convert JSON array property value from arrays to keys.
From

..,"searchResult":[{"itemId":["123"],"title":["abc"],..}]
to

..,"searchResult":[{"itemId":"123","title":"abc",..}]

Full original JSON result here with search result highlighted

Full original JSON result here

the JSON array is being received in this code

//function to retrieve JSON arrays
function _cb_findItemsByKeywords(root) {
//Navigates and assigns variable "items" into the property, item
  var items = root.findItemsByKeywordsResponse[0].searchResult[0].item || []; 
  var a = (items);
  //assigned variable a to the array
}

Question: How do I remove the square brackets and check my array a?

EDIT:
Sorry for the confusion, My goal is to combine this array with [..] with another array without [..] before appending the properties to a table. My plan:enter image description here

If I understand your question correctly, you wish to convert a JSON array into a Javascript object, since altering JSON property values to keys wouldn't be valid JSON.

To convert JSON array into Javascript object, in pure Javascript you do:

JSON.parse(yourJSONgoeshere);

Docs and examples here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/parse

Hope it helps.
