        string json_data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(my_jsondata);

        //Print the Json object
        Console.WriteLine(json_data);

        //Parse the json object
        JObject json_object = JObject.Parse(json_data);

        //Print the parsed Json object
        Console.WriteLine((string)json_object["Host"]);
        Console.WriteLine((string)json_object["UserName"]);
        Console.WriteLine((string)json_object["Password"]);
        Console.WriteLine((string)json_object["SourceDir"]);
