JSON deserializing to C# types

Question

I have got following JSON that should be deserialized to C# class:

{"status":"error","messages":[{"level":"error","key":"InvalidTokenError","dsc":"Invalid token"}]}

So I have a questions what is the kind of type should be

[{"level":"error","key":"InvalidTokenError","dsc":"Invalid token"}]

?

Is this array, list or class?

You can use json2csharp.com to get the types of the JSON.

JSON:

{"status":"error","messages":[{"level":"error","key":"InvalidTokenError","dsc":"Invalid token"}]}

Here is the classes generated for your JSON:

public class Message
{
    public string level { get; set; }
    public string key { get; set; }
    public string dsc { get; set; }
}

public class RootObject
{
    public string status { get; set; }
    public List<Message> messages { get; set; }
}

for JSON:

[{"level":"error","key":"InvalidTokenError","dsc":"Invalid token"}]

Type:

public class Message
    {
        public string level { get; set; }
        public string key { get; set; }
        public string dsc { get; set; }
    }
