I don't see where in that string you posted is all the information that you say you want out.  
By the way, I don't think that it is JSON that you want out, but a javascript object. A JSON is always a string.  
Also please see [this post](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-share-code-or-flow-json/506) for how to share flows, logs, code etc here.
