Deserialize JSON with C#

Deserialize JSON with C#

To deserialize JSON data in C#, you can use the System.Text.Json or Newtonsoft.Json library. Both libraries provide a simple way to deserialize JSON data into C# objects.

Here is an example of how to use System.Text.Json to deserialize JSON data into a C# object:

 using System; using System.Text.Json; // Define a class to represent the data in the JSON object public class Person { public string Name { get; set; } public int Age { get; set; } } // Define the JSON data as a string string json = "{\"Name\":\"John Smith\",\"Age\":30}"; // Deserialize the JSON data into a Person object Person person = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<Person>(json); // Use the Person object Console.WriteLine(person.Name); // Output: John Smith Console.WriteLine(person.Age); // Output: 30

In this example, we first define a Person class that has properties that match the data in the JSON object. We then define the JSON data as a string.

To deserialize the JSON data, we use the JsonSerializer.Deserialize<T>() method, where T is the type of object that we want to deserialize the JSON data into. In this case, we want to deserialize the JSON data into a Person object, so we pass typeof(Person) as the type parameter.

After deserializing the JSON data into a Person object, we can use the object's properties as usual. In this example, we simply print the Name and Age properties to the console.

Note that if you are using Newtonsoft.Json, the syntax for deserializing JSON data is similar, but the API is slightly different. For example, you would use the JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>() method instead of JsonSerializer.Deserialize<T>().
