Still cant figure out how to solve my problem :( However i get my data like this from return response.json(res)
q='["2211052870 BITWORK - SERVI\\u00c7OS DE INFORM\\u00c1TICA ", "2211051448 COMBITRANS TRANSIT\\u00c1RIOS, LDA. ", "2211050146 OITO BITS - INFORM\\u00c1TICA, LDA. ", "2211052568 PROBITAS-COM\\u00c9R.COMPUTAD.SERVI\\u00c7.LDA ", "2211052981 \\u00d3RBITA-BICICLETAS PORTUGUESAS, LDA."]' then i eval(q) The strange is that if i do eval(q) with python3 i get it properly decoded ['2211052870 BITWORK - SERVIÇOS DE INFORMÁTICA ', '2211051448 COMBITRANS TRANSITÁRIOS, LDA. ', '2211050146 OITO BITS - INFORMÁTICA, LDA. ', '2211052568 PROBITAS-COMÉR.COMPUTAD.SERVIÇ.LDA ', '2211052981 ÓRBITA-BICICLETAS PORTUGUESAS, LDA.'] however my app is still in python 2.7 and i get when eval(q) ['2211052870 BITWORK - SERVI\\u00c7OS DE INFORM\\u00c1TICA ', '2211051448 COMBITRANS TRANSIT\\u00c1RIOS, LDA. ', '2211050146 OITO BITS - INFORM\\u00c1TICA, LDA.
