You could use the String method "contains()", which will return true if the string contains the specified substring.

Or, you could use JSON.deserialize() to create a collection of objects and then see if the object you want exists, and what values it has.

thanks for that Glyn, I overlooked the simple string method option and was looking using JSON.deserialize().
