How are you getting JSON and where?

As per parsing you cannot do in component html file but can be done easily in javascript use api file.

But share more details.

You can use JQuery to parse JSON:

https://api.jquery.com/jQuery.parseJSON/

See this community as an example:

Notice in this example - the backend service returns JSON.

You parse JSON the same way you would in a non-AEM project - you can use JavaScript. I pointed you to some examples using JQeury,

Hi 

As mentioned by Scott,

You can parse JSON the same way you would do for a non-AEM project - you can use JavaScript.
