Unable to cast object of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject' to type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JArray'
Just make a class and deserialize it.
public class Print
{
public int PrintId { get; set; }
public string Header { get; set; }
public string TC { get; set; }
public string CompanyRef { get; set; }
}
Print printObj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Print>(yourJson);
printObj.PrintId = //...
As the message says, your object is JObject
so don't cast it to JArray
. Try this:
var objs = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject("{ \"PrintId\":10,\"Header\":\"header\",\"TC\":\"tc\",\"CompanyRef\":\"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000\"}");
Update To get a collection List<Print>
, your JSON needs to be an array. Try this (I made your JSON an array and added a second object):
string json = "[{ \"PrintId\":10,\"Header\":\"header\",\"TC\":\"tc\",\"CompanyRef\":\"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000\"}"
+ ",{ \"PrintId\":20,\"Header\":\"header2\",\"TC\":\"tc2\",\"CompanyRef\":\"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000\"}]";
var objs = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Print>>(json);
//The loop is only for testing. Replace it with your code.
foreach(Print p in objs){
Console.WriteLine("PrintId: " + p.PrintId);
Console.WriteLine("Header: " + p.Header);
Console.WriteLine("TC: " + p.TC);
Console.WriteLine("CompanyRef: " + p.CompanyRef);
Console.WriteLine("==============================");
}
public class Print
{
public int PrintId { get; set; }
public string Header { get; set; }
public string TC { get; set; }
public string CompanyRef { get; set; }
}
Here is a fiddle.
