import JSON file to MS SQL server

import JSON file to MS SQL server - c#

I make an API call to a URL using C# and it returns JSon response and i download the json file.
i would like to write the json data to database for use by a web application.
how can i import the json file into sql or write it direct from my c# program to db . am using sql 2016
My JSon file looks as follows :

Ok. As i have mentioned in my comment, you have to de-serialize the json string which you received to object/class and save that class/object properties to database using c#.
In database, you need to create tables based on your "json string structure" or "class/object".
According to your json string the class should be like below
public class Item
{
public string LocalTimestamp { get; set; }
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public bool Processed { get; set; }
public List<double> Position { get; set; }
}
public class AllItems
{
public List<Item> Items { get; set; }
public bool HasMoreResults { get; set; }
}
To de-serialize the json string, below is the code and for that, you need the namespace "System.Web.Script.Serialization".
string jsonstring = #"define your json string here";
//Deserialize the json string to the object/class format
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
AllItems allItemsObj = serializer.Deserialize<AllItems>(jsonstring);
Create your database table as per the json string structure
CREATE TABLE AllItemsTable (
ItemIdPrimary int NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1),
LocalTimestamp nvarchar(255),
Id int,
Description nvarchar(255),
Processed nvarchar(255),
Position1 nvarchar(50),
Position2 nvarchar(50)
PRIMARY KEY (ItemIdPrimary)
);
Here the complete code to de-serialize the json string and save data
to database.
For jsonstring, i have added a json file named as "test1.json" inside
the application and copied your json string to the json file.Late i am
consuming the json from that file("test1.json")
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Configuration;
namespace DeserializeJson2ConsoleApp
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Get the Json string
string jsonstring = File.ReadAllText(#"D:\My Apps\Console Applications\DeserializeJson2ConsoleApp\DeserializeJson2ConsoleApp\test1.json");
//Deserialize the json string to the object/class format
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
AllItems allItemsObj = serializer.Deserialize<AllItems>(jsonstring);
//Save the deserilized object/class to database
//Get your connection string defined inside the Web.config(for web application) / App.config(for console/windows/wpf/classlibrary application) file
string myConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
//Create your Sql Connection here
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(myConnectionString))
{
//Open the sql connection
con.Open();
//Loop each items and save to database
foreach (var item in allItemsObj.Items)
{
//Save/Insert to database
if(SaveToDatabase(con, item))
{
Console.WriteLine("Success : " + item.Description + " Saved into database");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Error : " + item.Description + " unable to Saved into database");
}
}
}
Console.Read();
}
/// <summary>
/// Insert to database
/// </summary>
/// <param name="con"></param>
/// <param name="aItemObj"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
static bool SaveToDatabase(SqlConnection con,Item aItemObj)
{
try
{
string insertQuery = #"Insert into AllItemsTable(LocalTimestamp,Id,Description,Processed,Position1,Position2) Values(#LocalTimestamp,#Id,#Description,#Processed,#Position1,#Position2)";
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, con))
{
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#LocalTimestamp",aItemObj.LocalTimestamp));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Id", aItemObj.Id));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Description", aItemObj.Description));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Processed", aItemObj.Processed));
for(int index=0;index<aItemObj.Position.Count;index++)
{
if(index==0)
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Position1", aItemObj.Position[index].ToString()));
else
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Position2", aItemObj.Position[index].ToString()));
}
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
return true;
}
catch (Exception objEx)
{
return false;
}
}
}
public class Item
{
public string LocalTimestamp { get; set; }
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
public bool Processed { get; set; }
public List<double> Position { get; set; }
}
public class AllItems
{
public List<Item> Items { get; set; }
public bool HasMoreResults { get; set; }
}
}
And here is the message in console after data saved to the database.
And here is the data which has been saved to the database.
Hope, it solves your problem. Revert me back if you have any issues.

How to deserialise JSON from HubSpot

I am having trouble deserializing JSON received from HubSpot ContactList API.
I am using Restsharp and NewtonSoft, and I'm having real struggles understanding how to correctly define the required classes in order to deserialize the JSON string, which is below:
"contacts": [
{
"vid": 2251,
"portal-id": 5532227,
"is-contact": true,
"profile-url": "https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/5532227/contact/2251",
"properties": {
"firstname": {
"value": "Carl"
},
"lastmodifieddate": {
"value": "1554898386040"
},
"company": {
"value": "Cygnus Project"
},
"lastname": {
"value": "Swann"
}
},
"form-submissions": [],
"identity-profiles": [
{
"vid": 2251,
"saved-at-timestamp": 1553635648634,
"deleted-changed-timestamp": 0,
"identities": [
{
"type": "EMAIL",
"value": "cswann#cygnus.co.uk",
"timestamp": 1553635648591,
"is-primary": true
},
{
"type": "LEAD_GUID",
"value": "e2345",
"timestamp": 1553635648630
}
]
}
],
"merge-audits": []
},
{
"vid": 2301,
"portal-id": 5532227,
"is-contact": true,
"profile-url": "https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/5532227/contact/2301",
"properties": {
"firstname": {
"value": "Carlos"
},
"lastmodifieddate": {
"value": "1554886333954"
},
"company": {
"value": "Khaos Control"
},
"lastname": {
"value": "Swannington"
}
},
"identity-profiles": [
{
"vid": 2301,
"saved-at-timestamp": 1553635648733,
"deleted-changed-timestamp": 0,
"identities": [
{
"type": "EMAIL",
"value": "cswann#khaoscontrol.com",
"timestamp": 1553635648578,
"is-primary": true
},
{
"type": "LEAD_GUID",
"value": "c7f403ba",
"timestamp": 1553635648729
}
]
}
],
"merge-audits": []
}
],
"has-more": false,
"vid-offset": 2401
}
If I simply request the vid, I correctly get 2 vid's back. It's when I try to do the properties and that i get a fail.
Please help

Lets reduce the Json to the minimum to reproduce your error :
{
"vid": 2301,
"portal-id": 5532227,
"is-contact": true,
"profile-url": "https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/5532227/contact/2301",
"properties": {
"firstname": {
"value": "Carlos"
},
"lastmodifieddate": {
"value": "1554886333954"
},
"company": {
"value": "Khaos Control"
},
"lastname": {
"value": "Swannington"
}
}
}
And the appropriate class ContactListAPI_Result:
public partial class ContactListAPI_Result
{
[JsonProperty("vid")]
public long Vid { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("portal-id")]
public long PortalId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("is-contact")]
public bool IsContact { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("profile-url")]
public Uri ProfileUrl { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("properties")]
public Dictionary<string, Dictionary<string, string>> Properties { get; set; }
}
public partial class ContactListAPI_Result
{
public static ContactListAPI_Result FromJson(string json)
=> JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ContactListAPI_Result>(json);
//public static ContactListAPI_Result FromJson(string json)
// => JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ContactListAPI_Result>(json, Converter.Settings);
}
public static void toto()
{
string input = #" {
""vid"": 2301,
""portal-id"": 5532227,
""is-contact"": true,
""profile-url"": ""https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/5532227/contact/2301"",
""properties"": {
""firstname"": {
""value"": ""Carlos""
},
""lastmodifieddate"": {
""value"": ""1554886333954""
},
""company"": {
""value"": ""Khaos Control""
},
""lastname"": {
""value"": ""Swannington""
}
}
}";
var foo = ContactListAPI_Result.FromJson(input);
}
But the Value of one property will be burrow in the sub dictionary, we can the project the object in a more usefull one :
public partial class ItemDTO
{
public long Vid { get; set; }
public long PortalId { get; set; }
public bool IsContact { get; set; }
public Uri ProfileUrl { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, string> Properties { get; set; }
}
Adding the projection to the Class:
public ItemDTO ToDTO()
{
return new ItemDTO
{
Vid = Vid,
PortalId = PortalId,
IsContact = IsContact,
ProfileUrl = ProfileUrl,
Properties =
Properties.ToDictionary(
p => p.Key,
p => p.Value["value"]
)
};
}
Usage :
var result = foo.ToDTO();

Creating and managing class structure for big and nested key/value pair json is tedious task
So one approach is to use JToken instead.
You can simply parse your JSON to JToken and by querying parsed object, you will easily read the data that you want without creating class structure for your json
From your post it seems you need to retrieve vid and properties from your json so try below code,
string json = "Your json here";
JToken jToken = JToken.Parse(json);
var result = jToken["contacts"].ToObject<JArray>()
.Select(x => new
{
vid = Convert.ToInt32(x["vid"]),
properties = x["properties"].ToObject<Dictionary<string, JToken>>()
.Select(y => new
{
Key = y.Key,
Value = y.Value["value"].ToString()
}).ToList()
}).ToList();
//-----------Print the result to console------------
foreach (var item in result)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.vid);
foreach (var prop in item.properties)
{
Console.WriteLine(prop.Key + " - " + prop.Value);
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
Output:

What I ultimately want to do is create a dropdown that is populated with the SerialNumber. When the SerialNumber is selected in the dropdown, it will return the id so that I can then plug that into a GET request to retrieve the appropriate listitems.
I am trying to figure out if I need to do a foreach to create a LIST<> or something else all together.
I do have this class setup, but wasn't sure if I could use it the way I thought I could.
public class Lookup
{
string id { get; set; };
string SerialNumber { get; set; }
}
This is the final working code:
private async void GetButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
var (authResult, message) = await Authentication.AquireTokenAsync();
ResultText.Text = message;
if (authResult != null)
{
var httpClient = new HttpClient();
HttpResponseMessage response;
var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, geturl);
//Add the token in Authorization header
request.Headers.Authorization = new System.Net.Http.Headers.AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", authResult.AccessToken);
response = await httpClient.SendAsync(request);
var content = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
JObject json = JObject.Parse(content);
var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SharePointListItems.RootObject>(content);
foreach (var d in result.value)
{
Lookups.Add(new SharePointListItems.Lookup() { id = d.fields.id, SerialNumber = d.fields.SerialNumber });
}
TestComboBox.ItemsSource = Lookups;
}
}
private void TestComboBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (TestComboBox.SelectedIndex != -1)
{
var mylookupId = (TestComboBox.SelectedItem as SharePointListItems.Lookup).id;// get your id and do further processing here.
ResultText.Text = mylookupId;
}
}
public class SharePointListItems
{
public class Lookup
{
public string SerialNumber { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
public override string ToString()
{
return SerialNumber;
}
}
public class Value
{
public Lookup fields { get; set; }
}
public class Fields
{
[JsonProperty("#odata.etag")]
public string ODataETag { get; set; }
...
}
public class RootObject
{
[JsonProperty("#odata.context")]
public string ODataContext { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("#odata.etag")]
public string ODataETag { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("fields#odata.context")]
public string FieldsODataContext { get; set; }
public Fields Fields { get; set; }
public List<Value> value { get; set; }
}
}

There are two way can create model easily.
You can use Web Essentials in Visual Studio, use Edit > Paste special > paste JSON as class, you can easier to know the relation between Json and model.
If you can't use Web Essentials you can instead of use http://json2csharp.com/ online JSON to Model class.
You can try to use those models to carry your JSON Format.
public class Lookup
{
public string SerialNumber { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
}
public class Value
{
public Lookup fields { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<Value> value { get; set; }
}
Then you can use obj.value property collection directly.
var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(jsonData);
foreach (var item in obj.value)
{
//item.fields.id
//item.fields.SerialNumber
}

A good example of how to bind a list of data to Combobox ( dropdown ) is here : https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/data-binding-in-xaml-uwp-using-combobox/
in this example the class is a Student with id and Name and it shows how u can show the name in combobox.
I will modify it a little for your scenario but if you want to go in depth than you can visit the provided link above.
This is the class
public class Fields
{
public string SerialNumber { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
public override string ToString()
{
return this.SerialNumber; // so that we can just bind to the object and get serial number in the ui.
}
}
Backend for adding items to the List
public sealed partial class MainPage: Page
{
List<Lookup> Lookups = new List<Lookup>();
public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
Lookups.Add(new Lookup() {id = 1, SerialNumber = "S1"});
Lookups.Add(new Lookup() {id = 2, SerialNumber = "S2"});
Lookups.Add(new Lookup() {id = 3, SerialNumber = "S3"});
Lookups.Add(new Lookup() {id = 4, SerialNumber = "S4"});
//add as many items here as u want, u can even use a for loop or foreach loop or a Deserializer with newsoft json to get objects from ur json like below.
//var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(jsonData);
//foreach (var d in data.value)
//{
// //d.fields.id //this is how u can get the inside properties.
//}
yourComboBox.ItemSource = Lookups;//setting item source to UI.
}
}
after you successfully bind the data with UI you can use SelectionChanged event of your combobox to do further logic as you require,
void MyComboBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, object args)
{
if(MyCombobox.SelectedIndex!=-1)
{
var mylookupId = (MyCombobox.SelectedItem as Lookup).id;// get your id and do further processing here.
}
}

I think this will be easy when using newtonsoft:
var dynamicObject = JObject.Parse(yourstring);
var list = new List<Lookup>();
//now you have a dynamic object containing an array.
//this should be doable with linq as well.
//note, the type is dynamic
foreach (dynamic thing in dynamicObject )
{
list.Add(new Lookup()
{
id = thing.fields.id,
SerialNumber = thing.fields.SerialNumber
});
}
disclaimer: not tested in any way ;-)

AspnetCore datacontract serialize in JSON with the name namespace of the keys of my dictionary

I tried to send a Dictionary.
This is the structure of my Dictionary:
var gridsAndCountriesByShipper = new Dictionary<Organisation, List<Grid>>();
And this is the class which the namespace appears instead of the object value:
namespace ez.webservice.PublicRestApi.DTO.References
{
[DataContract(Name = "organisation", Namespace = "")]
public class Organisation
{
[DataMember(Name = "id")]
public int Id { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "longName")]
public string LongName { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "shortName")]
public string ShortName { get; set; }
}
}
Finally this is the result when I send this object:
return Ok(gridsAndCountriesByShipper);
{
"ez.webservice.PublicRestApi.DTO.References.Organisation": [
{
"owner": {
"$id": "1",
"id": 2,
"longName": null,
"shortName": "Test"
},
"calendar": {
"id": 3,
"name": null,
"dotNetName": null,
"mySqlName": null,
"offset": 0
},
"country": {
"id": 13,
"name": "France",
"alpha2": "FR",
"alpha3": "FRA",
"grids": [],
"logo": {
"id": 13,
"name": "France",
"shortName": "FR"
}
},
"countryFlag": null,
"flag": "",
"granularity": "DAY",
I didn't find a solution.

Your Organisation doesn't override ToString() method and the default behavior is to return the class name with namespace

Reading/Deserializing json File in WP8.1 C#

I'm currently trying to read Json file (named initial_data.json) which reside in the folder DataModels in my Project folder. The problem I'm having is it won't read the file. I have tried the following code to read the file to json string (which I will use it to deserialize later, so I've tried to display it into resultTextBlock) and nothing has came out.
Here's my Json file format
{
"brands": [
{
"id": "AUD",
"name": "AUDI",
"sort": "99",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "BEN",
"name": "MERCEDES-BENZ",
"sort": "6",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "BMW",
"name": "BMW",
"sort": "7",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "CHE",
"name": "CHEVROLET",
"sort": "8",
"active": true
}
],
"models": [
{
"id": "100",
"name": "CIVIC",
"brandID": "HON",
"size": null,
"year": "-",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "101",
"name": "CRV",
"brandID": "HON",
"size": null,
"year": "-",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "102",
"name": "CRVEXI",
"brandID": "HON",
"size": null,
"year": "-",
"active": true
},
{
"id": "103",
"name": "GDYSSEY",
"brandID": "HON",
"size": null,
"year": "-",
"active": true
}
]
}
Here's my json Class
public class Brand
{
[JsonProperty("id")]
public string id { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("name")]
public string name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("sort")]
public string sort { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("active")]
public bool active { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("path")]
public string path { get; set; }
}
public class Model
{
[JsonProperty("id")]
public string id { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("name")]
public string name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("brandID")]
public string brandID { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("size")]
public object size { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("year")]
public string year { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("active")]
public bool active { get; set; }
}
And here's how I write my reading function
private async Task readJsonAsync()
{
// Notice that the write **IS** identical ... except for the serializer.
string content = String.Empty;
var myStream = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.OpenStreamForReadAsync(JSONFILENAME);
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(myStream))
{
content = await reader.ReadToEndAsync();
}
resultTextBlock.Text = content;
}
Any help would be appreciated

think there might be some issue with the path you specified for the file name.
Please put your file in assets folder and follow the below code
var fileStream = File.OpenRead("Assets/" + "sampleJson.txt");//You can specify your file name here.
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(fileStream))
{
var content = await reader.ReadToEndAsync();
}

SerializationException: End element 'caption' from namespace '' expected

I'm trying to deserialize a json string and I'm getting the error End element 'caption' from namespace '' expected. Found element 'created_time' from namespace ''. when calling
InstagramObject test = (InstagramObject) instagramObject.ReadObject(instagramWebResponse.GetResponseStream());
The json from Instagram returns many elements but there are only a few that I need. My DataContract will be posted below.
Basically I need {data:[{caption: string, link: string, images: {...}}]}
Here's an example of the json...
{
"data": [{
"comments": {
"data": [],
"count": 0
},
"caption": {
"created_time": "1296710352",
"text": "Inside le truc #foodtruck",
"from": {
"username": "kevin",
"full_name": "Kevin Systrom",
"type": "user",
"id": "3"
},
"id": "26621408"
},
"likes": {
"count": 15,
"data": [{
"username": "mikeyk",
"full_name": "Mike Krieger",
"id": "4",
"profile_picture": "..."
}, {...subset of likers...}]
},
"link": "http://instagr.am/p/BWrVZ/",
"user": {
"username": "kevin",
"profile_picture": "http://distillery.s3.amazonaws.com/profiles/profile_3_75sq_1295574122.jpg",
"id": "3"
},
"created_time": "1296710327",
"images": {
"low_resolution": {
"url": "http://distillery.s3.amazonaws.com/media/2011/02/02/6ea7baea55774c5e81e7e3e1f6e791a7_6.jpg",
"width": 306,
"height": 306
},
"thumbnail": {
"url": "http://distillery.s3.amazonaws.com/media/2011/02/02/6ea7baea55774c5e81e7e3e1f6e791a7_5.jpg",
"width": 150,
"height": 150
},
"standard_resolution": {
"url": "http://distillery.s3.amazonaws.com/media/2011/02/02/6ea7baea55774c5e81e7e3e1f6e791a7_7.jpg",
"width": 612,
"height": 612
}
},
"type": "image",
"filter": "Earlybird",
"tags": ["foodtruck"],
"id": "22721881",
"location": {
"latitude": 37.778720183610183,
"longitude": -122.3962783813477,
"id": "520640",
"street_address": "",
"name": "Le Truc"
}
}]
}
and here's my DataContract...
[DataContract]
public class InstagramObject {
[DataMember(Name = "data")]
public IEnumerable<InstagramData> instagramData { get; set; }
}
[DataContract]
public class InstagramData {
[DataMember(Name = "images")]
public List<InstagramImage> instagramImages { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "caption")]
public string caption { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "link")]
public string link { get; set; }
}
[DataContract]
public class InstagramImage {
[DataMember(Name = "low_resolution")]
public InstagramImageInfo lowResolutionImage { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "thumbnail")]
public InstagramImageInfo thumbnail { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "standard_resolution")]
public InstagramImageInfo standardResolution { get; set; }
}
[DataContract]
public class InstagramImageInfo {
[DataMember(Name = "url")]
public string url { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "width")]
public int width { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name = "height")]
public int height { get; set; }
}

In the data contract caption is declared as a string, but in the JSON caption is a record with various fields - caption should be declared to be an object with a compatible structure:
[DataContract]
public class InstagramCaption {
[DataMember(Name = "text")]
public string Text {get; set;}
}
. . .
[DataMember(Name = "caption")]
public InstagramCaption caption { get; set; }
. . .

No need to declare those clases If you want to go with Json.Net + Linq
var obj = (JObject)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json);
var result = obj["data"]
.Select(x => new {
Caption = (string)x["caption"]["text"],
Link = (string)x["link"],
Images = x["images"].Children()
.Select(y=>(string)y.First()["url"]).ToArray()
})
.ToArray();
