I am new to C# and trying to write some code to fetch the webpage and parse it into readable format.
I have fetched the data from webpage using uri
var uri2 = new Uri("explame.com")
I see the response in format below like this:
{"name":"abc" "country":"xyz" "citizenship":"A" [{"pincode":"111", "Dis":"no"] Lot's of data follows something like that
There are multiple with attribute "name" and "country" in response. My question is how to fetch the data something like below
name:abc
country:xyz
citizenshih:A
pincode 111
dis:no
For all attributes in response code.
Is that the exact format of the data you're getting? Because that's JSON-ish, but it's not valid JSON and wouldn't be parsed as such. If, however, you are actually getting JSON then you can de-serialize that.
Using something like Newtonsoft's JSON library you can fairly trivially de-serialize JSON into an object. For example, this JSON:
{
"name":"abc",
"country":"xyz",
"citizenship":"A",
"someProperty": [
{
"pincode":"111",
"Dis":"no"
}]
}
Might map to these types:
class MyClass
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Country { get; set; }
public string Citizenship { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<MyOtherClass> SomeProperty { get; set; }
}
class MyOtherClass
{
public string Pincode { get; set; }
public string Dis { get; set; }
}
In which case de-serializing might be as simple as this:
var myObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyClass>(yourJsonString);
you could try
dynamic data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(receivedJsonString);
foreach (dynamic o in data)
{
Debug.WriteLine(o.country);
}

so I have a problem:
The code in JSON that you see there is a response that a webpage gives me. And the thing I want to do is really simple:
I just want to parse for example the "user_id", or "class".
I tried few things on stackoverflow that I found but no one works...
{
"data": {
"user": {
"class": "user",
"user_id": "81046537",
"etp_guid": "76411082-73ab-5aaa-9242-0bb752cf97a4",
},
},
}
Thanks !
There are many ways you can extract the user_id from the json. The most common way is to use Newtonsoft.Json package.
Assuming the json is stored as a string, you can call JObject.Parse().
var data = "{'data': {'user': {'class': 'user','user_id': '81046537','etp_guid': '76411082-73ab-5aaa-9242-0bb752cf97a4'} } }";
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(data);
var userId = jObject["data"]["user"]["user_id"];
Console.WriteLine($"User id {userId}");
If your json is stored as a n object, then call JObject jObject = new JObject(data)
A preferred way is to serialise your json using business object. Simply create classes to match the json structure. e.g:
public class Response
{
public Data Data { get; set; }
}
public class Data
{
public User User { get; set; }
}
public class User
{
public string Class { get; set; }
public string User_id { get; set; }
public string Etp_guid { get; set; }
}
Then deserialize your object. e.g:
var response = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Response>(data);
Console.WriteLine($"User id {response.Data.User.User_id}");
I have a a api response from Azure Ml which returns the follow json bellow:
responseApi content
{ "Results": { "id_unidade_negocio": [ { "msgSucesso": "Processamento concluído com sucesso" } ] } }
I would like to extract only the "msgSucesso": "Processamento concluído com sucesso"
I try the code below, however didn't work.
var obj = JObject.Parse(responseApi);
var msg = (string)obj.SelectToken("Results.msgSucesso");
I didin't try to deserialize the json to a object class, because I don't know the right format class to create it to be compatible with output json.
Whats is the best way to extract this info from json response?
Or How can I create a class that fit in this json output in other to convert the json to object?
https://stackoverflow.com/a/24233127/2906166
check above link
public class IdUnidadeNegocio
{
public string msgSucesso { get; set; }
}
public class Results
{
public List<IdUnidadeNegocio> id_unidade_negocio { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public Results Results { get; set; }
}
var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(responseApi);
Console.WriteLine(obj.Results.First().msgSucesso);
SO I have a Json array as following:
{[data, [{"name":"Micheal Jackson","pic_large":"https://scontent.x.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-1/p200x200/14909900_10154513795037597_3241587822245799922_n.jpg?oh=54ead7e0ba74b45b632d96da1515ccf8&oe=591C4938","id":"10154729171332597"}
How can I serialize it with C# to parse it into objects and then pass it to the view.
EDIT:

EDIT2:
Here is how I retrieve above Json.
var appsecret_proof = access_token.GenerateAppSecretProof();
var fb = new FacebookClient(access_token);
dynamic myFeed = await fb.GetTaskAsync(
("me/feed?fields=likes{{name,pic_large}}")
.GraphAPICall(appsecret_proof));
The strings shown in your question are all invalid JSON. A properly formatted JSON might look like this:
{
"data": [{
"name": "Micheal Jackson",
"pic_large": "https://scontent.x.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-1/p200x200/14909900_10154513795037597_3241587822245799922_n.jpg?oh=54ead7e0ba74b45b632d96da1515ccf8&oe=591C4938",
"id": "10154729171332597"
}]
}
Now if you want to map this to C# class that's pretty easy to do. Just define the models to reflect this structure:
public class Feed
{
[JsonProperty("id")]
public string Id { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("name")]
public string Name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("pic_large")]
public string PicLarge { get; set; }
}
public class Result
{
[JsonProperty("data")]
public IList<Feed> Feeds { get; set; }
}
and then all that's left is to deserialize the JSON string using a JSON serializer such as Json.NET back to this object structure:
string json = ... the json string shown above
var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Result>(json);
foreach (var feed in result.Feeds)
{
Console.WriteLine(feed.Name);
}
first you need to create class with properties same as in json and then use the following code :
class obj
{
public string name {get ; set; }
public string pic_large {get ; set; }
public id {get ; set; }
}
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
.
.
var obj = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize<obj>(jsonString);
i am a newbie to coding , I have a nested json coming from a external source the json format is looks something like this ..
{
"data":"data",
"data":
{
"data":"data",
//----------------e.t.c the internal objects could be in n number
}
}
so how do i deserialize the json object and use the data as a list in order to do my other operations like sql and posting the data??
You need to create a class that is appropriate with the Json, like that:
public someClass
{
public string data1 { get; set; }
public DataClass dataArr { get; set; }
}
public DataClass
{
public string insideData { get; set; }
}
after you do this you need the following code:
var jsonDto = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<someClass>(yourJson);
I get this response string from the Bitly api:
{ "status_code": 200,
"status_txt": "OK",
"data":
{ "long_url": "http:\/\/amazon.de\/",
"url": "http:\/\/amzn.to\/1mP2o58",
"hash": "1mP2o58",
"global_hash": "OjQAE",
"new_hash": 0
}
}
How do I convert this string to a dictionary and how do I access the value for the key "url" (without all the \)
This isn't just some ordinary string. This is a data structure in JSON format, a common and well-established format, originally used in Javascript but now rather common as a data transfer mechanism between services and clients.
Rather than reinventing the wheel and parsing the JSON yourself, I suggest you use an existing JSON library for C#, such as JSON.NET, which will eat up that string and parse it into .NET objects for you.
Here's a code sample, taken from JSON.NET's documentation, showing its usage:
string json = #"{
'href': '/account/login.aspx',
'target': '_blank'
}";
Dictionary<string, string> htmlAttributes =
JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Dictionary<string, string>>(json);
Console.WriteLine(htmlAttributes["href"]);
// /account/login.aspx
Console.WriteLine(htmlAttributes["target"]);
// _blank
If you add a package like Newtonsoft's Json to your project, you can deserialize the Json in to an anonymous type. You can then fetch the url from that. This is available via NuGet within Visual Studio and provides support for async or sync serialization/deserialization.
public string GetUrl(string bitlyResponse)
{
var responseObject = new
{
data = new { url = string.Empty },
};
responseObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(bitlyResponse, responseObject);
return responseObject.data.url;
}
I'd use JSON.NET.

MIT License which means if you're doing anything commercial you are good.
I don't think you would want to go straight to a Dictionary, because there is some stuff there that isn't a one to one relationship. So you could make a class like the following.
public class BitlyData
{
public string LongUrl{ get; set; }
public string Url { get; set; }
public string Hash { get; set; }
public string GlobalHash { get; set; }
public string NewHash { get; set; }
}
You could then use Json.NET to turn that String into an JObject. So we'll call your string bitlyString.
JObject bitlyObject = JObject.Parse(bitlyString);
Now we have that all that is left to do is access the data.
BitlyData theData = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<BitlyData>(bitlyObject["data"]);
Then you can access the url (and any other pieces) using the getters.
Of course you could make it even better by having class that handles the other bits as well so you just do one serialisation.
1)Add these classes to your project
public class Rootobject
{
public int status_code { get; set; }
public string status_txt { get; set; }
public Data data { get; set; }
}
public class Data
{
public string long_url { get; set; }
public string url { get; set; }
public string hash { get; set; }
public string global_hash { get; set; }
public int new_hash { get; set; }
}
2)Add a reference to JSON.NET
3)
string jsonString= "YOUR JSON STRING";
Rootobject weps = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Rootobject>(jsonString);
Console.WriteLine(weps.status_code);
if (weps.data != null)
{
Console.WriteLine(weps.data.url);
Console.WriteLine(weps.data.global_hash);
//...
}
