How can I convert a StringContent() type to an object of type <MyModelClass> in C# with Visual Studio 2019

I'm trying to turn the string result below in the first line of code into an object of type "Root.cs". I have "Root.cs" class set up in my Visual Studio 2019 "solution" with proper classes set up to turn the string result into the object.
This line of code works fine to get me the string I need:
var result = client.PostAsync(endpoint, payload).Result.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
Here's the contents of the string "result":
{"sections":[{"id":"Building_Configuration","name":"Building_Configuration","sections":[{"id":"B uilding_Configuration.Parameters_SP","name":"Building_Configuration.Parameters_SP","sectio ns":[],"variables":[{"id":"Building_Configuration.Parameters_SP.fixtureStrategy_SP","name":"Bui lding_Configuration.Parameters_SP.fixtureStrategy_SP","valueType":"String","distinctValueCou nt":3.0,"allowMultipleAssignments":false,"values":[{"name":"ETA","value":"ETA","properties":[{ "id":"fullyqualifiedname","value":"ETA","type":"String"},{"id":"name","value":"ETA","type":"Stri ng"}],"type":"SingletonValue","assigned":"byDefault","incompatible":false},{"name":"ETD","valu e":"ETD","properties":[{"id":"fullyqualifiedname","value":"ETD","type":"String"},{"id":"name","v alue":"ETD","type":"String"}],"type":"SingletonValue","incompatible":false},{"name":"ETA/ETD", "value":"ETA/ETD","properties":[{"id":"fullyqualifiedname","value":"ETA/ETD","type":"String"},{ "id":"name","value":"ETA/ETD","type":"String"}],"type":"SingletonValue","incompatible":false}],"
Now, I need to create the object of type "Root" (My Model Class) for the purpose of picking and choosing certain values out of it. Shouldn't this line work for that?
Root MyObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>(result);
Here's the definition of Root.cs:

My "result" and my "Root.cs" class are each larger than the 30,000 characters limit here. So, I've had to only post a portion of my string "result" and my "Root.cs" class. I'm trying to simplify this question. Please forgive me while I learn how to use this...

Answer: I was making the newbie mistake of trying to return a string that I picked out of a "Root.cs" Model class as a Root object. I had the return type of the method set to Root instead of string. Upon changing the return type to string, that part of my solution works fine.
It works fine like this:
public string CreateExecPost(FormData person2){
var payload = new StringContent(newPost, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
var result = client.PostAsync(endpoint, payload).Result.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;//result is already in JSON
Root MyObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>(result);
//return MyObject.language; //WORKS
return MyObject.language;
}

C# Reading json and edit

SOLUTION
Profile newProfileList = new Profile();
newProfileList = myDeserializedClass.profiles[0]; // New profile list is null so i've casted some values from old ones.
myDeserializedClass.profiles.Add(newProfileList);
richTextBox1.Text = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(myDeserializedClass);
Then i can save it as json file again. Thanks to #Donut
I've got the following code:
OpenFileDialog ofd = new OpenFileDialog();
string txtProfile;
if (ofd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
txtProfile = File.ReadAllText(ofd.FileName);
richTextBox1.Text = txtProfile;
}
Root myDeserializedClass = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>(richTextBox1.Text);
Using this code, I'm able to read a JSON file and deserialize it successfully to an instance of the Root class. However, when I try to create new profiles in this object, I get some error about "read only values":
Form1.cs(124,13,124,47): error CS0200: Property or indexer 'List<Form1.Profile>.Count' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only
How can I correctly edit the deserialized data (e.g. add new instances of the Profile class), and save it back to the JSON file?
For reference, here are the classes I'm using for deserialization.

Json string deserialization C#

I have this json
and i want to deserialize it so I can get each object's value for example:
"icon_url": "-9a81dlWLwJ2UUGcVs_nsVtzdOEdtWwKGZZLQHTxDZ7I56KU0Zwwo4NUX4oFJZEHLbXH5ApeO4YmlhxYQknCRvCo04DEVlxkKgpouLWzKjhzw8zFdC5K092kl5SClMj3PLXFhGpC_Pp8j-3I4IG7i1Hn_UI-Nmj3ItDGe1BoN1mCr1G4xL_vhMS8tcmcn3JhuihwsHvbzQv3309k3tBw8A",
The problem is I can make the class(es) that I need so I can deserialize the json because the json string has nested objects.

I used json2csharp to help me generate classes. After some merging and cleaning up, this is what I got:
public class InventoryItem
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string classid { get; set; }
public string instanceid { get; set; }
public string amount { get; set; }
public int pos { get; set; }
}
public class AppData
{
public string def_index { get; set; }
public int? is_itemset_name { get; set; }
public int? limited { get; set; }
}
public class Description
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string value { get; set; }
public string color { get; set; }
public AppData app_data { get; set; }
}
public class Action
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string link { get; set; }
}
public class Tag
{
public string internal_name { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string category { get; set; }
public string category_name { get; set; }
public string color { get; set; }
}
public class RgDescription
{
public string appid { get; set; }
public string classid { get; set; }
public string instanceid { get; set; }
public string icon_url { get; set; }
public string icon_url_large { get; set; }
public string icon_drag_url { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string market_hash_name { get; set; }
public string market_name { get; set; }
public string name_color { get; set; }
public string background_color { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
public int tradable { get; set; }
public int marketable { get; set; }
public int commodity { get; set; }
public string market_tradable_restriction { get; set; }
public List<Description> descriptions { get; set; }
public List<Action> actions { get; set; }
public List<Action> market_actions { get; set; }
public List<Tag> tags { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public bool success { get; set; }
public IDictionary<string, InventoryItem> rgInventory { get; set; }
public List<object> rgCurrency { get; set; }
public IDictionary<string, RgDescription> rgDescriptions { get; set; }
public bool more { get; set; }
public bool more_start { get; set; }
}
These appear to work correctly, you can deserialize and serialize with code like this:
var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(oldString);
Console.WriteLine(obj.rgDescriptions["310776560_302028390"].icon_url); // e.g.
var newString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj,
new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore });
// null value handling is optional, the above makes it a little more like the source string

The required property {0} does not exist on the type {1}. Entity framework (model first) when adding FK

I am trying to add foreign key to the database and then I am updating the model. After I update the model, the application gives following error:

What do I miss?

The property type is wrong. Modify your entity with the exact type. DocumentsTrackingChildDocuments isn't the same as DocumentsTrackingChildDocument.

Deserialize JSON response coming from SkyDrive to a Custom Class

I want to deserialize the JSON response coming from LiveConnectClient.GetAsync("me/skydrive/files") to a custom class to find out if a specific folder is there on the skydrive root. I got the json result from the skydrive and used json2csharp.com to get the class structure. Then i used Json.net's DeserializeObject method to deserialize the json to the class structure. But it throws an Exception during execution. I got the desired result without converting the json result. But i want to know what went wrong and how to convert it to my custom class. The code is given below
private async void btnFldrStruct_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
LiveOperationResult opResult = await client.GetAsync("me/skydrive/files");
dynamic skyResult = opResult.Result;
var fileList = skyResult.data;
SkyDrive skydrive = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SkyDrive>(fileList);
...
}
Exception is thrown at
SkyDrive skydrive = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SkyDrive>(fileList);
The exception is
Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.RuntimeBinderException
Message
The best overloaded method match for 'Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(string)'
