How to get some values from a JSON string in C#?

by

Your strings are JSON formatted, so you will need to parse it into a object. For that you can use JSON.NET.

Here is an example on how to parse a JSON string into a dynamic object:

string source = "{\r\n   \"id\": \"100000280905615\", \r\n \"name\": \"Jerard Jones\",  \r\n   \"first_name\": \"Jerard\", \r\n   \"last_name\": \"Jones\", \r\n   \"link\": \"https://www.facebook.com/Jerard.Jones\", \r\n   \"username\": \"Jerard.Jones\", \r\n   \"gender\": \"female\", \r\n   \"locale\": \"en_US\"\r\n}";
dynamic data = JObject.Parse(source);
Console.WriteLine(data.id);
Console.WriteLine(data.first_name);
Console.WriteLine(data.last_name);
Console.WriteLine(data.gender);
Console.WriteLine(data.locale);

Happy coding!
