converting a string that contains an array into a json object

Question

In SOAPUI requests return values in the form of strings, whatever they contain. A request returns the following string at time t:

{satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value={satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value=[{type=DAILY, description=null, configuration={allXDays=1, time=08:10:29, timeProgramMode=TIME, startDate=2019-02-28}, id=guid], metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}, metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}

at time t+1 the same request returns the following

{satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value={satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value=[{type=DAILY, description=null, configuration={allXDays=1, timeProgramMode=TIME, startDate=2019-02-28, time=08:10:29}, id=guid], metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}, metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}

I have to compare them to check that no property changed, however there is a subtle order change in the value array so direct string comparison is impossible. When I try to use jsonSlurper to convert it so I could compare element by element, it raises an error. I thought it would help me to parse my responses and compare easily.

I'm trying to find a way to parse high level properties (such as 'satisfied') but also nested properties such as value or metadata and the array at an even lower level ...

EDIT

Trying to parse with json slurper gives me the following error :

expecting '}' or ',' but got current char 's' with an int value of 115

The current character read is 's' with an int value of 115

{satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value={satisfied=true, dynamic_href/properties/triggers, name=triggers, value=[{type=DAILY, description=null, configuration={allXDays=1, timeProgramMode=TIME, startDate=2019-02-28, time=08:10:29}, id=guid], metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}, metadata={satisfied=true, href=/m2m/fim/metadata/items/com.hager.domovea.automation.sequence.Sequence/properties/triggers, name=null, description=null, type=null, classes=null, regex=null, min=null, max=null, step=null, enumeration=null, beanMetadata=null, readable=null, writable=null, eventable=null, asyncStatusPropertyName=null, attributes=null}, asyncStatusProperty=null}

There are mismatched curly braces in that String. There are 6 { and 5 }. The parser can't deal with that.

EDIT

2 other issues are that the keys are not quoted and there are = where there should be :. There is also stuff like ... , dynamic_href/properties/triggers, ... which is not valid JSON.
