How to get values from JObject

Question

I want to integrate Pipedrive with Dynamics CRM. I am calling webhook whenever deal is updated in Pipedrive. I am getting data in JObject form. I want to extract two fields from that. One is status and other is title.How can I do that?

Code to call Webhook:

 [RoutePrefix("api/webhook")]
public class WebhookController : ApiController
{
    [HttpPost]
    [Route("")]
    public void Post(JObject message)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Received webhook: {message}");            
    }
}

Json which I am getting :

{
  "v":1,
  "matches_filters":{
    "current":[

    ]
  },
  "meta":{
    "v":1,
    "action":"updated",

If it's a regular HTTP call you can just use built-in JSON model binder. Try to change your JObject to a class which represents your message, like: (Structure updated to provided JSON representation)

public class Message 
{
    public Current Current { get; set; }
}   

public class Current 
{
    public string Status { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
}

and use it in your WebHook:

[RoutePrefix("api/webhook")]
public class WebhookController : ApiController
{
    [HttpPost]
    [Route("")]
    public void Post(Message message)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Received webhook: {message.Current.Title} {message.Current.Status}");            
    }
}
