I\'m using ServiceStack Json Serializer and couldn\'t find a method related to valid

Answer 1

A working code snippet

public bool isValidJSON(String json)
{
    try
    {
        JToken token = JObject.Parse(json);
        return true;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return false;
    }
}
