Need a little help here
So I have a json url and need to get each item into a for each loop
Here is the json
{
"_links": { },
"count": 9,
"list": {
"staff": [
"staff1",
"staff2",
"staff3"
],
"clients": [
"client1",
"client2",
"client3",
"client4",
"client5",
"client6"
]
}
}
string source;
var sURL = "LINK_TO_JSON_URL";
WebRequest req = HttpWebRequest.Create(sURL);
req.Method = "GET";
req.Timeout = 5000;
try
{
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(req.GetResponse().GetResponseStream()))
{
source = reader.ReadToEnd();
reader.Close();
}
JToken jObject = JObject.Parse(source);
string clients = (string)jObject["list"]["clients"];
//for each loop here
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//error message here
}
So here is some code to show iterating over a JArray
that contains strings. This code has been tested with your json and outputs each client string.
var jObject = JObject.Parse(source);
foreach (var client in jObject["list"]["clients"])
{
Console.WriteLine((string)client);
}
