Filter data from deep json child

the JSON below is taken from other post. My issue is I know the id and I want to find out where is it located. Eg, I got ID 19006 and I want to get Folder2. How am I going to do this.
{
"data": {
"id": 0,
"name": "",
"childFolders": [{
"id": 19002,
"name": "Locker",
"childFolders": [{
"id": 19003,
"name": "Folder1",
"childFolders": [],
"childComponents": [{
"id": 19005,
"name": "route1",
"state": "STOPPED",
"type": "ROUTE"
}]
}, {
"id": 19004,
"name": "Folder2",
"childFolders": [],
"childComponents": [{
"id": 19008,
"name": "comm1",
"state": "STOPPED",
"type": "COMMUNICATION_POINT"
}, {
"id": 19006,
"name": "route2",
"state": "STOPPED",
"type": "ROUTE"
}, {
"id": 19007,
"name": "route3",
"state": "STOPPED",
"type": "ROUTE"
}]
}],
"childComponents": []
}],
"childComponents": []
},
"error": null
}

I write code now it is like this:
var json = GetJsonString();
var model = GetJsonModel(json);
var folderName = GetName(model.data, 19006);
I chekced and code is correct. folderName is Folder2
And the recursive code:
private string GetName(Data data, int searchValue)
{
var folderName = data.name;
foreach (var item in data.childComponents)
{
if (item.id == searchValue)
{
return folderName;
}
}
if (data.childFolders.Length > 0)
{
foreach (var item in data.childFolders)
{
var folderName1 = GetName(item, searchValue);
if (folderName1 != null)
{
return folderName1;
}
}
}
return null;
}
Your model is like this:
EDIT:
I parse Json like this.
return JsonSerializer.Deserialize<YourJson>(test);

How to get all value of particular key in JSON?

I have a JSON structure that contains different levels. How to iterate the JSON and get all values of a particular key in JSON in C#
Below is my JSON file
{
"name": "EPM Company",
"id": "kpfwzgmhpm",
"type": "root",
"childern": [
{
"cid": "67",
"cname": "cname1",
"childern": [
{
"reading": [
{
"id": 121,
"name": "test1"
},
{
"id": 1121,
"name": "test11"
}
]
}
]
},
{
"cid": "454",
"cname": "cname14",
"childern": [
{
"reading": [
{
"id": 454,
"name": "test14"
},
{
"id": 21,
"name": "test141"
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
This is the JSON format. I am trying to get the value in the below format.
{
"name": "EPM Company",
"id": "kpfwzgmhpm",
"value": [
{
"id": 121,
"name": "test1",
"cid": "67",
"cname": "cname1"
},
{
"id": 1121,
"name": "test11",
"cid": "67",
"cname": "cname1"
},
{
"id": 124234,
"cname": "test12342",
"cid": "67",
"name": "cname1"
},
{
"id": 454,
"name": "test14",
"cid": "454",
"cname": "cname14"
},
{
"id": 21,
"name": "test141",
"cid": "454",
"cname": "cname14"
},
{
"id": 121,
"name": "test123122",
"cid": "454",
"cname": "cname14"
}
]
}
fetching all the reading key and its value-added to array with its cid and came. is it possible?
advanced thanks for the help
my code in c# is
public string SensorList(string entireData)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(entireData))
{
return string.Empty;
}
var returnObj = new Jobject ();
JObject o = JObject.Parse(entireData);
var childern = o["children"];
returnObj.Add("name" = o ["name"];
returnObj.Add("id" = o ["id"];
returnObj.Add("value" = o ["value"];
var valuearry = new JArray();
foreach(var data in childern)
{
foreach(var reading in data["reading"])
{
var valobj = new Jobject ();
valobj.Add( "cid",data["id"])
valobj.Add( "cname",data["name"])
valobj.Add( "name",reading["id"])
valobj.Add( "id",reading["name"])
valuearry.add()
if(data.containsKey("children"))
{
var sensorInfo = SensorList(data["children"]);
}
}
returnObj.Add("value",valuearry);
// var output = sensorInfo.SelectMany(x => ((JObject)x).Properties().Select(y => new JObject {
// new JProperty("id",y.Name),
// new JProperty("name",y.Value["name"])
// })).ToList();
// var returnArray = new JArray(output);
return returnObj.ToString();
}
}
recurring part is not working and take too much time for other long JSON file

How to remove JSON object/Token from JSON with changing keys

How can I delete objects having removethisobject="yes" in path rootkey3.variablekey1.properties, rootkey3.variablekey2.properties. The challenge is that rootkey3 can have keys with different name and are not fixed which means that variablekey1, variablekey2 etc. can be anything.)
changingjson
{
"rootkey1": "rv1",
"rootkey2": "rv2",
"rootkey3": {

Tried following code in C# and get an exception
var myJobj = JObject.Parse(changingJSON);
var rk3 = myJobj.SelectToken("rootkey3");
foreach (var ck in rk3)
{
var ck1 = (string)ck["childkey1"]; // exception
}
I am using latest version of Newtonsoft and .Net fx 4.7

Try this if it can help you,
var json = File.ReadAllText("json1.json");
var myJobj = JObject.Parse(json);
var rk3 = myJobj.SelectToken("rootkey3");
foreach (var ck in rk3.Children())
{
var ck1 = ck.SelectToken("$..childkey1").ToString();
}

C# parse JSON access to child object

I have this JSON:

I need to get results.profile_image.small I tried it on many ways but I never figured out how to access to profile_image fields.
Basically I want to do something like this:
dynamic array = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(responz);
foreach (var itemx in array["results"])
{
MessageBox.Show(itemx.profile_image.small.ToString());
}
I spent last few hours figuring it out, searching searching StackOverflow. The last option is do this with regex which would be very stupid thing to do.

Based on your JSON, the actual path should be:
itemx.user.profile_image.small
So if you modify your code to include the missing "user" portion:
dynamic array = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(responz);
foreach (var itemx in array["results"])
{
MessageBox.Show(itemx.user.profile_image.small.ToString());
}
That should solve your problem.
However, this problem would likely not have presented itself if you were using a concrete class to deserialize into. You would have type safety and the assistance of Intelisense if you use a concrete class. You can easily convert your JSON sample into a concrete class using Json2CSharp or using the "Paste as Class" function of modern Visual Studio versions.

An alternative to relying on the dynamic is to capture and parse the JSON with JSON.net, it's designed for querying json data and is really much safer than using dynamic
http://json.codeplex.com/
And deserializing into classes:
http://dotnetbyexample.blogspot.ca/2012/02/json-deserialization-with-jsonnet-class.html

Look at this:
Response.Write("Employer: " + myInfo.work.employer.name);
I suspect you meant:
Response.Write("Employer: " + work.employer.name);
Put it this way - if that's not what you meant, what's the purpose of your work variable?
