Working with C#: How do I iterate through a nested JSON using Newtonsoft.JSON?
Question
I am pulling in a large amount of JSON data for items. Each item has set of particular data that I am wanting to grab and place in a list.
Here is a sample of two of the over 700 items contained in the JSON data. I need to be able to iterate through the JSON data using Newtonsoft.JSON and pull the data at "items", "values", "value" for the "fieldName": "Item ID". I need to do this for all 700 items returned in the JSON data. How do I iterate through this data and access just that particular data?

This what I have started with:
string itemJson = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
JObject rss = JObject.Parse(itemJson);

Something like this ?
foreach (var item in items)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}", item.id);
foreach (var val in item.values)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}", val.fieldName);
}
}

One way to go would be to use http://json2csharp.com/ to generate classes from your json.
Once you have the classes, you can add them into your project and use JSON.net to deserialize the whole structure. Once you've deserialized the json to c# POCO's like
var yourObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<'your c# wrapper class'>(<your json>);
you can use Linq to query the objects.
