Problem

The problem with your approach is the replace method replaces all matching occurrences.

Solution

Use replace method callback

replace(regexp, replacerFunction)


var newInput = '{"id":"1","value":"Admin","prefix":"@"} asdas {"id":"24","value":"Ibiere Banigo","prefix":"@"}';

var finalString = newInput.replace(/\{\"(.*?)\"\}/g, match => {
  var data = JSON.parse(match);
  return '@[' + data.id + ']'
})

console.log(finalString);
