Deserialize JSON into Object C#

Question

Hello I am in desperate need of some help. I have a json file, with an array of json objects. I cannot figure out how to deserialize it into a list of this object.

Answer 1

This is very simple to do using Newtonsoft.JSON and there is a page in the documentation covering how to deserialize an object.

Taken from the documentation page:

public class Account
{
    public string Email { get; set; }
    public bool Active { get; set; }
    public DateTime CreatedDate { get; set; }
    public IList Roles { get; set; }
}

// code to deserialize from JSON string to a typed object
string json = @"{
    'Email': 'james@example.com',
    'Active': true,
    'CreatedDate': '2013-01-20T00:00:00Z',
    'Roles': [
        'User',
        'Admin'
    ]
";

Account account = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json);

Console.WriteLine(account.Email);
// james@example.com
