It's a bit difficult to say what you can/should do with the question like that, but generally you'd want to take a look at jsonlite package to get your data out of json into an R object and then ggplot2/plotly/base R packages for plotting.

The data is in json? or the specification for the plot is in json? Do you have a small example?

I'd do your best to answer the guiding questions from misha and grosscol, but my best guess is that you have json files, and you'd like to work with them so that you can create plots with your json data.

I'd first encourage you to get a good introduction into R. Data Camp, Code Academy, and Coursera have great courses if you'd like a recommendation.
Next, importing json files. jsonlite is a handy package for this. Here's a guide

Next, I feel ggplot2 is a handy R package for creating plots from your data. There are a ton of examples on the ggplot2 reference website:

Do you have an example of "json string" you want to use to create a plot?
