Parsing a JSON list with escape characters

Hi, the output of my front end produces a response in the form of a JSON list that looks like this:  response = "{\"data\" : [{\"id\":1, \"firstname\":\"John\", \"lastName\":\"Day\"}, {\"id\":2, \"firstname\":\"Patricia\",\"lastname\":\"Boyle\"}]}";

When passing to Xano, it doesn't appear to recognise this input as an array - I think it is something do to with the escaped characters. Not clear to me on how to possibly remove them or use a filter to resolve when using a 'for each' function. Any assistance would be much appreciated!!!
