I have a JObject equal to: "Info": { "View":"A", "Product":"B", "Offer":"Offer1", "Demo":"body {background-color:red;} #box {border:dotted 50px red;}", "Log":false } How can I return the name of the object, "Info"? I am currently using the Path property like so: jObject.Name = jObject.Path.Substring(jObject.Path.jObject('.') + 1); Is there a better way to do this? In JSON, objects themselves do not have names. An object is just a container for a collection of name-value pairs, beginning and ending with curly braces. So what you have above is a fragment of a larger body of JSON. There must be

I am using Newtonsoft.Json in my project. I have JObject like this: { "4781":"Name 1", "1577":"Name 2", "9973":"Name 3" } I successfully parse it with JObject.Parse() . I need to get first key from this JObject ("4781"). How do I get it? Json.NET doesn't directly provide integer indexed access to the properties of a JObject . If you do JObject.Parse(jsonString)[0] you get an ArgumentException with the message Accessed JObject values with invalid key value: 0. Object property name expected." Demo #1 here . I suspect Json.NET was implemented that way because the JSON standard states, "An object

I'm trying to serialize objects as JSON with MVC4 WebAPI (RTM - just installed VS2012 RTM today but was having this problem yesterday in the RC) and I'd like for all nulls to be rendered in the JSON output. Like this: [{"Id": 1, "PropertyThatMightBeNull": null},{"Id":2, "PropertyThatMightBeNull": null}] But what Im getting is [{"Id":1},{"Id":2}] I've found this Q/A WebApi doesnt serialize null fields but the answer either doesn't work for me or I'm failing to grasp where to put the answer. Here's what I've tried: In Global.asax.cs's Application_Start, I added: var json = GlobalConfiguration

I have a problem with the following JSON when deserializing using JSON.NET. { "?xml": { "@version": "1.0", "@encoding": "utf-8" }, "Persons": { "Person": [{ "@Id": "1", "@Name": "John", "@Surname": "Smith" }, { "@Id": "2", "@Name": "John", "@Surname": "Smith", "Skills": { "Skill": [{ "@Id": "1", "@Name": "Developer" }, { "@Id": "2", "@Name": "Tester" }] } }] } } I'm using the following classes: public class RootObject { public Xml xml { get; set; } public Persons Persons { get; set; } } public class Xml { public string version { get; set; } public string encoding { get; set; } } public class

I got stuck with Json.NET library and its DeserializeObject method. The Documentation is not quite clear with what could be happening here, so I would appreciate if somebody could explain how to acheive to deserialize JSON into list of User objects. I'm trying to deserialize this JSON [ {"userid":"0", "listid":1, "lastname":"Mann", "inplace":true, "xpos":428, "ypos":111 }, {"userid":"1", "listid":1, "lastname":"Parker", "inplace":true, "xpos":334, "ypos":154 }, {"userid":"2", "listid":1, "lastname":"Terry", "inplace":true, "xpos":513, "ypos":160 } ] into an User object [JsonObject

I parsed this single Json : { "text": "Sample Text", "id": 123456789, "user": { "name": "ExampleUser", "id": 123, "screen_name": "ExampleUser" }, "in_reply_to_screen_name": null, } to my c# class RootObject : public class User { public string name { get; set; } public int id { get; set; } public string screen_name { get; set; } } public class RootObject { public string text { get; set; } public long id { get; set; } public User user { get; set; } public object in_reply_to_screen_name { get; set; } } like this : RootObject h = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(string); All of this

I use a XmlSerializer to serialize/deserialize some objects. The problem is the performance. When profiling, using the XmlSerializer make our application 2 seconds longer to start. We cache our XmlSerializer and reuse them. We cannot use sgen.exe because we are creating the XmlSerializer with XmlAttributeOverrides . I try to use serialization alternative like Json.Net and, at first, it's work great. The problem is that we need to be backward compatible so all the xml already generated need to be parsed correctly. Also, the object serialization output must be Xml. To summarize: I receive Xml

I'm getting data from a web service that returns a JSON response. This is my code: WebClient client = new WebClient(); var result = client.DownloadString("http://some url"); JObject obj = JObject.Parse(result); // Location l = new Location(); // l.city = obj["ad"][2]; error here At this point it returns a result, but I am getting an error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken' to 'string' I would like some assistance getting the returned data into my variable in the model. This is my JSON: { data: [ { address_obj: { street1: "9518 Front Beach Road", street2: "", city:
