So ive connected a n external API and I want to display it on the page, but im not getting any luck.
I'm using RestSharp so I cant just collect the infromation as such:
string results = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
Also because i'm using RestSharp, collecting the returned api information with:
string results = response.Content;
this causes the program to crash because it cannot be inserted into the data table. From what im seeing it needs to be deserialized, but im not sure how thats done in RestSharp.
EDIT 1:
This is my model class based on the API results
using Newtonsoft.Json;
namespace NBA_API_TEST.Models
{
public class NBAModel
{
[JsonProperty("id")]
public long Id { get; set; }

[JsonProperty("code")]
public string Code { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("logo")]

}
}
from the API call 5 results should be returned.
So I have these set up
IList<NBAModel> GameModel = new List<NBAModel>();
GameModel = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<NBAModel>>(results);
But that causes this error to be returned:
JsonSerializationException: Cannot deserialize the current JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) into type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[NBA_API_TEST.Models.NBAModel]' because the type requires a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) to deserialize correctly. To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) or change the deserialized type so that it is a normal .NET type (e.g. not a primitive type like integer, not a collection type like an array or List) that can be deserialized from a JSON object. JsonObjectAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON object.

for your classes you can try this, but you will not have a root level data in this cases
List<NBAModel> nbaModels=JObject.Parse(json)["response"].ToObject<List<NBAModel>>();
public partial class TeamsHome
{
[JsonProperty("id")]
public long Id { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("name")]
public Name Name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("nickname")]
public Nickname Nickname { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("code")]
public Code Code { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("logo")]
public Uri Logo { get; set; }
}
public enum Code { Atl, Bos };
public enum Name {
[EnumMember(Value = "Atlanta Hawks")]
AtlantaHawks,
[EnumMember(Value = "Boston Celtics")]
BostonCeltics };
public enum Nickname { Celtics, Hawks };
if you want the whole data you need to add this classes
Data data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Data>(json);
public partial class Data
{
[JsonProperty("get")]
public string Get { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("parameters")]
public Parameters Parameters { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("errors")]
public List<object> Errors { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("results")]
public long Results { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("response")]
public List<NBAModel> Response { get; set; }
}
public partial class Parameters
{
[JsonProperty("season")]
public long Season { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("h2h")]
public string H2H { get; set; }

I'm trying to deserialize a json in c# with Newtonsoft, but when i try to print the elements, it returns null.
The json is the following:
{
"data": [
{
"ufs": [
{
"delivery": [
{
"grade": "100",
"name": "P01",
"id": 10,
"status": "submitted"
},
{
"name": "P02",
"id": 11,
"status": "new"
}
],
"name": "UF1",
"id": "18"
},
{
"delivery": [
{
"name": "P03",
"id": 12,
"status": "new"
},
{
"name": "P04",
"id": 13,
"status": "new"
}
],
"name": "UF2",
"id": "19"
}
],
"name": "M1",
"id": "5"
},
{
"ufs": [
{
"delivery": [
{
"name": "P01",
"id": 6,
"status": "submitted"
},
{
"name": "P02",
"id": 7,
"status": "new"
}
],
"name": "UF1",
"id": "23"
},
{
"delivery": [
{
"name": "P03",
"id": 8,
"status": "new"
},
{
"name": "P04",
"id": 9,
"status": "new"
}
],
"name": "UF2",
"id": "24"
}
],
"name": "M2",
"id": "6"
}
]
}
So, having this JSON, i went to this site to generate the classes i would need, that are the following ones:
public class Delivery
{
public string grade { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public int id { get; set; }
public string status { get; set; }
}
public class Uf
{
public List<Delivery> delivery { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
}
public class Root
{
public List<Uf> ufs { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
}
So finally, when i deserialize the JSON with this line
List<Root> myDeserializedClass = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Root>>(json);
And try to print
foreach (Root item in myDeserializedClass)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.ufs.Count);
}
It says "Root.ufs.get returned null."
Any clue of where im mistaking? Thanks for the help!
Grettings from Spain!
You class structure would be like this
public class Delivery
{
public string grade { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public int id { get; set; }
public string status { get; set; }
}
public class Uf
{
public List<Delivery> delivery { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
}
public class Data
{
public List<Uf> ufs { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
}
public class Root
{
public List<Data> data { get; set; }
}
When you needed to deserialize the Json you will do like this
Root myDeserializedClass = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>(json);
Here is the json that I used
string json = #"{'data': [
{
'ufs': [
{
'delivery': [
{
'grade': '100',
'name': 'P01',
'id': 10,
'status': 'submitted'
},
{
'name': 'P02',
'id': 11,
'status': 'new'
}
],
'name': 'UF1',
'id': '18'
},
{
'delivery': [
{
'name': 'P03',
'id': 12,
'status': 'new'
},
{
'name': 'P04',
'id': 13,
'status': 'new'
}
],
'name': 'UF2',
'id': '19'
}
],
'name': 'M1',
'id': '5'
},
{
'ufs': [
{
'delivery': [
{
'name': 'P01',
'id': 6,
'status': 'submitted'
},
{
'name': 'P02',
'id': 7,
'status': 'new'
}
],
'name': 'UF1',
'id': '23'
},
{
'delivery': [
{
'name': 'P03',
'id': 8,
'status': 'new'
},
{
'name': 'P04',
'id': 9,
'status': 'new'
}
],
'name': 'UF2',
'id': '24'
}
],
'name': 'M2',
'id': '6'
}
]
}";
Having some problems deserializing JSON in JSON.net.
First of all I am pulling JSON from my source that looks like the following.
{
"guest": {
"id": 11111,
"A": "bla",
"B": "bla",
"C": false,
"credentials": [
{
"id": 222,
"Z": "bla",
"accounts": [
{
"id": 01,
"type": "bla"
}
]
},
{
"id": 222,
"Z": "bla",
"accounts": [
{
"id": 02,
"type": "bla"
}
]
},
{
"id": 333,
"Z": "bla",
"accounts": [
{
"id": 03,
"type": "bla"
},
{
"id": 04,
"type": "bla"
},
{
"id": 05,
"type": "bla"
},
]
},
]
}
}
Within my code I have the following classes
public class guest
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string A { get; set; }
public string B { get; set; }
public bool C { get; set; }
public IList<credentials> credentials { get; set; }
}
public class credentials
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string Z { get; set; }
public IList<accounts> accounts { get; set; }
}
public class accounts
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
}
From this point I get my JSON from an HttpWebResponse and deserialize.
var httpResponseGetResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequestGetResponse.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponseGetResponse.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.UTF8))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
guest deseriazedJSON = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<guest>(result);
}
This ends with everything being NULL. Am I blind and missing something in the JSON.net docs?
Appreciate any help and thank you in advance.
You have an object with a single property named guest on a root level of your JSON. So it can be deserialized in next scenario:
public class Response
{
public guest guest { get; set; }
}
...
var httpResponseGetResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequestGetResponse.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponseGetResponse.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.UTF8))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
var deseriazedJSON = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Response>(result);
}
It's better to change your JSON input to avoid an extra wrapper:
{
"id": 11111,
"A": "bla",
"B": "bla",
"C": false,
"credentials": [
{
"id": 222,
"Z": "bla"
"accounts": [
{
"id": 01,
"type": "bla"
}
]
},
{
"id": 222,
"Z": "bla"
"accounts": [
{
"id": 02,
"type": "bla"
}
]
},
{
"id": 333,
"Z": "bla"
"accounts": [
{
"id": 03,
"type": "bla"
},
{
"id": 04,
"type": "bla"
},
{
"id": 05,
"type": "bla"
},
]
},
]
}

Here as you can see its maintaining a hierarchy in each level in the children node. What my scenario is to convert this dynamic JSON as datatable rows
For deserilising this is how I tried
dynamic myJSON=jObject.parse(JSONstring);
but when I try myJSON.id its triggering an error like id not exists
What my plant is if children array has some elements, call another function to get its members and add to the datatable. But how can I get these fields from the dyanmic json string.
You can use like this
public class Child2
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public int parentID { get; set; }
public bool hasChildren { get; set; }
public List<object> children { get; set; }
}
public class Child
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public int paretnID { get; set; }
public bool hasChildren { get; set; }
public List<Child2> children { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public bool hasChildren { get; set; }
public int parentID { get; set; }
public List<Child> children { get; set; }
}
then Deserialize
var data=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(JSONstring);
then you can access data.id
You need to add reference Newtonsoft.json
I m using the Google Place Api Json:

"text": "Saw this place on tv introduced as a place to give people who are deaf or hard of hearing a place to work. Thought it was well meaning and interesting so decided to have a visit. \n\nArrived I think around 11:30am. Walked in and was greeted by no one. The place was pretty much empty except for one table (more people came in later closer to lunch). Didn't quite know how this place operates and no one there to show us, so we picked a table ourself and sat down, waited, but no one came over to give us a menu or anything. \n\nWent over to the cashier and asked. Gave us a sheet where we can tick what we would like to order. The lunch menu you get to pick 3 dishes out of 6 and you get with it a bowl of soup and unlimited refill of rice (the rice is not the plain white ones but with added healthy red grains). This costs $42 per person, and each person MUST order one! I think it must be because they have free rice refills. At the time I wasn't feeling that well so I didn't wan't to eat but was forced (well could have walked out but we came all the from NT to try this place) to buy a lunch set each. I couldn't eat mine and my friend wasn't able to eat 2 sets so it was all wasted. Why do they have to have this rule? \n\nI wasn't able to eat much so the food review is from the friend I went with. The food was bland, a bit like hospital food, so guess that makes it healthy. The ingredients were not good quality, One of the dish was green cabbage but there was yellowing and \"stringy\" in the mouth. \n\nFor a place that promotes healthy eating, it does not show in the quality of their ingredients. And for a place that tries to help the handicapped in society, it's good someone is doing that but they also need to provide the training for the staff to work in this place. Even the manager there, who was not deaf, will do good with a bit of training as we had to walk up to him to ask for everything. \n\nGood intentions, but very disappointed by everything else!",

I wish to extract the opening_hours to build a new List<OpenCloseDaysModel> with the following model:
public class OpenCloseDaysModel
{
public int day { get; set; }
public List<OpenCloseResultModel> range { get; set; }
public bool is_open { get; set; }
}
public class OpenCloseResultModel
{
public string start { get; set; }
public string end { get; set; }
}
I try to do it with the following function:
public async static Task<string> FormatOpenCloseFromGoogle(GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours)
{
string Output = null;
int CurrentDay = 0;
string start = null;
string end = null;
OpenCloseDaysModel OpenCloseDaysModel = new OpenCloseDaysModel();
List<OpenCloseDaysModel> OpenCloseDaysList = new List<OpenCloseDaysModel>();
List<OpenCloseResultModel> OpenCloseResultModel = new List<OpenCloseResultModel>();
//HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("<hr />" + JsonConvert.SerializeObject(GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours, Formatting.None, new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore }) + "</ hr>");
if (GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours != null)
{
foreach (var item in GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours?.periods)
{
TimeSpan tsstart;
TimeSpan tsend;
if (!TimeSpan.TryParse(item.open?.time?.Substring(0, 2) + ":" + item.open?.time?.Substring(2, 2), CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out tsstart))
{
return null;
}
else
{
start = tsstart.ToString(#"hh\:mm");
}
if (!TimeSpan.TryParse(item.close?.time?.Substring(0, 2) + ":" + item.close?.time?.Substring(2, 2), CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out tsend))
{
return null;
}
else
{
end = tsend.ToString(#"hh\:mm");
}
OpenCloseDaysModel.day = CurrentDay;
if (item.open.day != CurrentDay)
{
OpenCloseDaysModel.range = OpenCloseResultModel;
OpenCloseDaysList.Add(OpenCloseDaysModel);
OpenCloseDaysModel = new OpenCloseDaysModel();
OpenCloseResultModel = new List<OpenCloseResultModel>();
OpenCloseResultModel.Add(new OpenCloseResultModel { start = start, end = end });
}
else
{
OpenCloseResultModel.Add(new OpenCloseResultModel { start = start, end = end });
}
CurrentDay = item.open.day;
}
OpenCloseDaysModel.day = CurrentDay;
OpenCloseResultModel.Add(new OpenCloseResultModel { start = start, end = end });
OpenCloseDaysModel.range = OpenCloseResultModel;
OpenCloseDaysList.Add(OpenCloseDaysModel);
List<OpenCloseDaysModel> OrderdOpenCloseDaysList = new List<OpenCloseDaysModel>();
for (int i = 1; i < 7; i++)
{
var DayQuery = OpenCloseDaysList.OrderByDescending(o => o.day).Where(o => o.day == i).FirstOrDefault();
if (DayQuery != null)
{
OrderdOpenCloseDaysList.Add(new OpenCloseDaysModel { day = i, range = DayQuery.range, is_open = true });
}
else
{
OrderdOpenCloseDaysList.Add(new OpenCloseDaysModel { day = i, range = null, is_open = false });
}
}
//for sunday
var DayQuerySunday = OpenCloseDaysList.Where(o => o.day == 0).FirstOrDefault();
if (DayQuerySunday != null)
{
OrderdOpenCloseDaysList.Add(new OpenCloseDaysModel { day = 0, range = DayQuerySunday.range, is_open = true });
}
else
{
OrderdOpenCloseDaysList.Add(new OpenCloseDaysModel { day = 0, range = null, is_open = false });
}
Output = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(OrderdOpenCloseDaysList, Formatting.None, new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore });
}
return Output;
}
But it's returning some wrong value...
Is there an easier way to build my Model : OpenCloseDaysModel ?
I would use LINQ methods to do the transformation between the models, then fill in the missing days, sort the results by day and finally serialize. Perhaps something like this:
public static string FormatOpenCloseFromGoogle(GooglePlaceApiOpeningHours openingHoursModel)
{
if (openingHoursModel == null || openingHoursModel.periods == null) return null;
// build a list of open days from Google data
var list = openingHoursModel.periods
.GroupBy(p => p.open.day)
.Select(g => new OpenCloseDaysModel
{
day = g.Key,
is_open = true,
range = g.Select(p => new OpenCloseResultModel
{
start = p.open.time.Substring(0, 2) + ":" + p.open.time.Substring(2, 2),
end = p.close != null ? p.close.time.Substring(0, 2) + ":" + p.close.time.Substring(2, 2) : "23:59"
})
.OrderBy(r => r.start)
.ToList()
})
.ToList();
// fill in missing days
for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++)
{
if (!list.Any(m => m.day == i))
list.Add(new OpenCloseDaysModel { day = i, is_open = false, range = null });
}
// sort days with Sunday at the end and return the serialized result
var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore };
return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list.OrderBy(m => m.day > 0 ? m.day : 7), settings);
}
With your sample data, this gives the following result (I added formatting here for readability, but the output of the above is unformatted as per your original code):
[
{
"day": 1,
"range": [
{
"start": "11:30",
"end": "14:30"
},
{
"start": "18:00",
"end": "22:00"
}
],
"is_open": true
},
{
"day": 2,
"range": [
{
"start": "11:30",
"end": "14:30"
},
{
"start": "18:00",
"end": "22:00"
}
],
"is_open": true
},
{
"day": 3,
"range": [
{
"start": "11:30",
"end": "14:30"
},
{
"start": "18:00",
"end": "22:00"
}
],
"is_open": true
},
{
"day": 4,
"is_open": false
},
{
"day": 5,
"range": [
{
"start": "11:30",
"end": "14:30"
},
{
"start": "18:00",
"end": "22:00"
}
],
"is_open": true
},
{
"day": 6,
"range": [
{
"start": "11:30",
"end": "14:30"
},
{
"start": "18:00",
"end": "22:00"
}
],
"is_open": true
},
{
"day": 0,
"range": [
{
"start": "10:30",
"end": "23:00"
}
],

}
And my classes
public class Genres
{
public Metadata metadata { get; set; }
public List<Result> results { get; set; }
}
public class Metadata
{
public int page {get; set; }
public int perPage { get; set;}
public int count { get; set; }
}
public class Result
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string slug { get; set; }
public List<object> subgenres { get; set; }
}
And my code to deserialize the data using json.net.
void beatportTest_GetDataCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
List<Result> data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Result>>(e.Result);
//foreach loop to display data
I want to be able to display the name of each genre from the Results class, but i get the error when my app compiles.
Your JSON data has two main elements metadata and results. And according to you class structure, the Genres class also has the same structure. But in your code you are trying to de-serialize the structure to Results, thats why you are getting the error.You should try to de-serialize to Genres class.The new code will be something like
void beatportTest_GetDataCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
Genres data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(e.Result);
// for-each loop to display data
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
}
}
