Escape double quotes and other characters in JSON body

I'm using a Custom API Call to add issues to Workfront. I'm looking for a simple way to escape unwanted characters. e.g. Double Quotes, tab characters, new line, etc etc. 

There is the replace function, but nested replaces are getting quite tricky and it doesn't seem to work well in the UI etc.

Any advice would help?

You need to use the "Transform to JSON" or "Create JSON" modules to properly escape to JSON strings.
