Crestron Deserialize in C# and send array to Simpl+

Trying best how to take the following classes and deserialize a Json file to return each class values back to Simpl+. I am able to receive the Total value but anything in a list I am at a lost.
public class Client
{
public string clientId { get; set; }
public string locale { get; set; }
public string location { get; set; }
public string auxiliaryId { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
public string typeDescription { get; set; }
public Hardware hardware { get; set; }
public Network network { get; set; }
}
public class Hardware
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string softwareVersion { get; set; }
public string serialNumber { get; set; }
public string hardwareVersion { get; set; }
public string model { get; set; }
}
public class Network
{
public string ip { get; set; }
public string mac { get; set; }
public object homepage { get; set; }
public string dhcpSubnet { get; set; }
}
public class Result
{
public List<Client> clients { get; set; }
public string total { get; set; }
public int limit { get; set; }
public int page { get; set; }
}
public class Root
{
public string jsonrpc { get; set; }
public object id { get; set; }
public Result result { get; set; }
}

I was able to resolve this by adding the following to the foreach statement:
args.MyIndex = (ushort)(rootObject.TriplePlayResult.clients.IndexOf(item) + 1);

I am getting error while converting json to object

i am trying to convert JSON to object following is my json
{"entity":"event","account_id":"acc_8yTsyb2WJOlcka","event":"payment.captured","contains":["payment"],"payload":{"payment":{"entity":{"id":"pay_AKR45WLH0g1ANu","entity":"payment","amount":100,"currency":"INR","status":"captured","order_id":"order_AKR41LsWIgOAB1","invoice_id":null,"international":false,"method":"netbanking","amount_refunded":0,"refund_status":null,"captured":true,"description":"Admission Fees","card_id":null,"bank":"SBIN","wallet":null,"vpa":null,"email":"xxxxx.xxxx#xxx.xxx","contact":"xxxxx","notes":{"address":"NA","merchant_order_id":"2516"},"fee":2,"tax":0,"error_code":null,"error_description":null,"created_at":1528367383}}},"created_at":1528367384}
and the code I am trying to convert to object is
jsonString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(documentContents);
RazorPayPayload desJsonString = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RazorPayPayload>(jsonString);
and the classes where I want to deserialized
public class RazorPayPayload
{
public string entity { get; set; }
public string account_id { get; set; }
public string events { get; set; }
public List<string> contains { get; set; }
public payments payload { get; set; }
public string created_at { get; set; }
}
public class payments
{
public Entities payment { get; set; }
}
public class notes
{
public string address { get; set; }
public string merchant_order_id { get; set; }
public string source { get; set; }
}
public class Entities
{
public Entity entity { get; set; }
}

}
I am getting the error "Error converting value to type 'FeePayr_Razor_Webhook.RazorPayPayload'"

Have you tried changing:
{"entity":"event","account_id":"acc_8yTsyb2WJOlcka","event":
to
{"entity":"event","account_id":"acc_8yTsyb2WJOlcka","events":
That would better match your class definition. Or rename your class field to event.

There is a useful visual studio function for converting a json object to c# classes.
Copy the JSON into the clipboard. (helps if the JSON object properties holds data, to determine the data type)
Go to visual studio and place cursor where you'd like to paste in the c# classes.
click edit => paste special => paste json as classes

Deserializing the JSON Objest results in all null fields C#

My jsonResponse is something like this:
{"status":200,"data":{"first_name":"\u062e\u0633","last_name":"\u0635\u062f\u0627","national_code":"1","image_photo":"1.jpg","cellphone":"1234","city":{"id":1,"name":"x","created_at":"2017-02-27 17:54:44","updated_at":"2017-02-27 17:54:44"},"email":"something#gmail.com","even_odd":1,"Register Time":"2018-01-25 10:39:17","is_blocked":false,"receive_regular_offer":"false","level":1,"ride_count":0,"service_type":1,"bank":"\u0645","iban":"xy","card_number":"","holder":"\u062e\u0633","plate_number":"123","vehicle_model":"\u067e\u0698","vehicle_color":"\u062a\u0627\u06a9\u0633","unique_id":592875}}
I have created a class like this:
public class Driver
{
public string first_name { get; set; }
public string last_name { get; set; }
public string national_code { get; set; }
public string image_photo { get; set; }
public string cellphone { get; set; }
public string city { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public string even_odd { get; set; }
public bool is_blocked { get; set; }
public bool receive_regular_offer { get; set; }
public string level { get; set; }
public string ride_count { get; set; }
public string service_type { get; set; }
public string bank { get; set; }
public string iban { get; set; }
public string card_number { get; set; }
public string holder { get; set; }
public string vehicle_model { get; set; }
public string vehicle_color { get; set; }
public string unique_id { get; set; }
}
and used this:
jsonResponse = reader.ReadToEnd();
JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
Driver snappDriver = js.Deserialize<Driver>(jsonResponse);
But the result is all null!

1.your class should be defined right
example:
void Main()
{
var json =api();
//dynamic
var dynamic_json = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json).Dump() as JObject;
//strong type
var strong_Type_json = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Driver>(json).Dump() ;
}
string api(){
return #"
{""status"":200,""data"":{""first_name"":""\u062e\u0633"",""last_name"":""\u0635\u062f\u0627"",""national_code"":""1"",""image_photo"":""1.jpg"",""cellphone"":""1234"",""city"":{""id"":1,""name"":""x"",""created_at"":""2017-02-27 17:54:44"",""updated_at"":""2017-02-27 17:54:44""},""email"":""something#gmail.com"",""even_odd"":1,""Register_Time"":""2018-01-25 10:39:17"",""is_blocked"":false,""receive_regular_offer"":""false"",""level"":1,""ride_count"":0,""service_type"":1,""bank"":""\u0645"",""iban"":""xy"",""card_number"":"""",""holder"":""\u062e\u0633"",""plate_number"":""123"",""vehicle_model"":""\u067e\u0698"",""vehicle_color"":""\u062a\u0627\u06a9\u0633"",""unique_id"":592875}}
";
}
public class City
{
public int id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string created_at { get; set; }
public string updated_at { get; set; }
}
public class Data
{
public string first_name { get; set; }
public string last_name { get; set; }
public string national_code { get; set; }
public string image_photo { get; set; }
public string cellphone { get; set; }
public City city { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public int even_odd { get; set; }
public string Register_Time { get; set; }
public bool is_blocked { get; set; }
public string receive_regular_offer { get; set; }
public int level { get; set; }
public int ride_count { get; set; }
public int service_type { get; set; }
public string bank { get; set; }
public string iban { get; set; }
public string card_number { get; set; }
public string holder { get; set; }
public string plate_number { get; set; }
public string vehicle_model { get; set; }
public string vehicle_color { get; set; }
public int unique_id { get; set; }
}
public class Driver
{
public int status { get; set; }
public Data data { get; set; }
}
2.json's key Register Time in strong type is invalid name
you can add _ in your json string to solve the problem

Try to create exactly the same class definition as your json has. Your Driver class describes json object's data property.
public class DriverWrapper
{
public string status { get; set; }
public Driver data { get; set; }
}

You have to create another object class that handles status and data property
try this
Create a class Response
class Response{
public int status { get; set;}
public Driver data { get; set;}
}
and do it this way
jsonResponse = reader.ReadToEnd();
JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
Response snappDriver = js.Deserialize<Response>(jsonResponse);

Parsing JSON data and read its properties value

I want to parse a JSON data dynamically and read its key and their values without serializing it in a concrete class because the JSON data can be different time to time. But for the initial testing one sample data is like this . In this data I want to get property values and if the JSON data aslo contains complex structure I also want to read child property values also How to do that in C#.
{"id":4877891717,"email":"rvp#insync.com","accepts_marketing":true,"created_at":"2017-03-24T08:39:56+01:00","updated_at":"2017-04-10T09:40:42+02:00","first_name":"Robin","last_name":"Van Persie","orders_count":8,"state":"disabled","total_spent":"2320.00","last_order_id":4434634693,"note":"","verified_email":true,"multipass_identifier":null,"tax_exempt":true,"phone":"+3225551212","tags":"","last_order_name":"#1116","addresses":[{"id":5143111941,"first_name":"Robin","last_name":"Van Persie","company":"InSync","address1":"CB 28, El Solo Road","address2":"CB 28, El Solo Road","city":"Brussels","province":"EU","country":"Belgium","zip":"123456","phone":"12345678","name":"Robin Van Persie","province_code":null,"country_code":"BE","country_name":"Belgium","default":true}],"default_address":{"id":5143111941,"first_name":"Robin","last_name":"Van Persie","company":"InSync","address1":"CB 28, El Solo Road","address2":"CB 28, El Solo Road","city":"Brussels","province":"EU","country":"Belgium","zip":"123456","phone":"12345678","name":"Robin Van Persie","province_code":null,"country_code":"BE","country_name":"Belgium","default":true}}
I am trying this way. But after geiing tiken what I will do.
foreach (JObject token in jObject.Children())
{}
Thanks

You can use NewtonsoftJson library to parse without creating concrete class
dynamic parseJson = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject("your json");
and get the value using below code like...
string Id=parseJson.Id.Value
I have tested it and it's working for me

you have two options(as far as i know). you can generate a class acording to your json string then parse the result in it. like this:
public class Address
{
public long id { get; set; }
public string first_name { get; set; }
public string last_name { get; set; }
public string company { get; set; }
public string address1 { get; set; }
public string address2 { get; set; }
public string city { get; set; }
public string province { get; set; }
public string country { get; set; }
public string zip { get; set; }
public string phone { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public object province_code { get; set; }
public string country_code { get; set; }
public string country_name { get; set; }
public bool #default { get; set; }
}
public class DefaultAddress
{
public long id { get; set; }
public string first_name { get; set; }
public string last_name { get; set; }
public string company { get; set; }
public string address1 { get; set; }
public string address2 { get; set; }
public string city { get; set; }
public string province { get; set; }
public string country { get; set; }
public string zip { get; set; }
public string phone { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public object province_code { get; set; }
public string country_code { get; set; }
public string country_name { get; set; }
public bool #default { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public long id { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public bool accepts_marketing { get; set; }
public string created_at { get; set; }
public string updated_at { get; set; }
public string first_name { get; set; }
public string last_name { get; set; }
public int orders_count { get; set; }
public string state { get; set; }
public string total_spent { get; set; }
public long last_order_id { get; set; }
public string note { get; set; }
public bool verified_email { get; set; }
public object multipass_identifier { get; set; }
public bool tax_exempt { get; set; }
public string phone { get; set; }
public string tags { get; set; }
public string last_order_name { get; set; }
public List<Address> addresses { get; set; }
public DefaultAddress default_address { get; set; }
}
then parse it(using json.net) like this:
var jObject=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(responseString);
or you can use dynamic object and deal with json result at runtime. like this:
var jObject=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(responseString);
foreach (JObject token in jObject.Children)

You can use NewtonsoftJson library to parse data easily
dynamic x = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(Jsondata);
foreach (var product in x) {
Messagebox.show(product.data.ToString());
}

REST Api returning different object names for the same object, how to handle with RestSharp?

I'm programming a C# implementation for the Qualtrics API (v 2.5) using RestSharp. When calling the method getUserIds, it returns a list of users in JSON format (see the example output below).
The problem/question I face is that for each user object (the list of objects under Result) it generates a different id, starting with URH_. When using json2csharp it assumes ofcourse that it's always a different class, while in fact it's absolutely the same one as you can see in the output, and as is stated in the documentation of the api. How can I best resolve this - so that I can make a class UserData that I can reuse? Because now I obviously always see these random URH_ prefixed classes in each response.
NOTE: I was thinking I could try to massage the response first, and when I get the response replace each URH_ prefixed object under the root Result object with a "UserData" string - but I feel this is breaking the rules a bit, and thought the community would have a better solution?
Below is the raw JSON output (note that I removed sensitive information):
{"Meta":{"Status":"Success","Debug":""},"Result":{"URH_3wpA9pxGbE0c7Xu":{"DivisionID":null,"UserName":"user.name#domain.com","UserFirstName":"x","UserLastName":"x","UserAccountType":"UT_4SjjZmbPphZGKDq","UserEmail":"x.x#x.x","UserAccountStatus":"Active"},"URH_57vQr8MVXgpcPUo":{"DivisionID":"DV_XXXXXXXX","UserName":"jxxxx#xx.xxx","UserFirstName":"X","UserLastName":"X","UserAccountType":"UT_BRANDADMIN","UserEmail":"xxxx#xxg.xxx","UserAccountStatus":"Active"},"URH_6ujW1EP0QJOUaoI":{"DivisionID":"DV_XXXXXXXYZ","UserName":"x.xckx#xxx.xyz","UserFirstName":"x","UserLastName":"x","UserAccountType":"UT_XXXXXABCD","UserEmail":"c.c#cc.com","UserAccountStatus":"Active"}}}
This is what I get when generating a model using json2csharp:
public class Meta
{
public string Status { get; set; }
public string Debug { get; set; }
}
public class URH3wpA9pxGbE0c7Xu
{
public object DivisionID { get; set; }
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string UserFirstName { get; set; }
public string UserLastName { get; set; }
public string UserAccountType { get; set; }
public string UserEmail { get; set; }
public string UserAccountStatus { get; set; }
}
public class URH57vQr8MVXgpcPUo
{
public string DivisionID { get; set; }
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string UserFirstName { get; set; }
public string UserLastName { get; set; }
public string UserAccountType { get; set; }
public string UserEmail { get; set; }
public string UserAccountStatus { get; set; }
}
public class URH6ujW1EP0QJOUaoI
{
public string DivisionID { get; set; }
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string UserFirstName { get; set; }
public string UserLastName { get; set; }
public string UserAccountType { get; set; }
public string UserEmail { get; set; }
public string UserAccountStatus { get; set; }
}
public class Result
{
public URH3wpA9pxGbE0c7Xu URH_3wpA9pxGbE0c7Xu { get; set; }
public URH57vQr8MVXgpcPUo URH_57vQr8MVXgpcPUo { get; set; }
public URH6ujW1EP0QJOUaoI URH_6ujW1EP0QJOUaoI { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public Meta Meta { get; set; }
public Result Result { get; set; }
}

It's simple - just use Dictionary<string, UserData> generic type for Result field:
public class Response
{
public Meta Meta { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, UserData> Result { get; set; }
}
public class Meta
{
public string Status { get; set; }
public string Debug { get; set; }
}
public class UserData
{
public string DivisionID { get; set; }
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string UserFirstName { get; set; }
public string UserLastName { get; set; }
public string UserAccountType { get; set; }
public string UserEmail { get; set; }
public string UserAccountStatus { get; set; }
}
