Json deserialization with array

Question

I have a problem with json deserialization

JSON string

{
  "id": "1",
  "marketId": "1",
  "userId": "2",
  "svisorId": "1",
  "orders": "[{\"Id\": 3, \"Count\": 1, \"Price\": 1000, \"Weight\": 1500, \"ShareId\": 0}]",
  "date": "1516770391",
  "totalWeight": "1500",
  "totalPrice": "1000",
  "debt": "1000",
  "shipped": "0"
}

"orders" property is an array of class ProductOrderInfo

Classes

public class OrderInfo
{
    public int Id
    { get; set; }
    public int MarketId
    { get; set; }
    public int UserId
    { get; set; }
    public int SVisorId
    { get; set; }
    //public List<ProductOrderInfo> Orders; even tried List type
    public ProductOrderInfo[] Orders
    { get; set; }
    public int TotalPrice
    { get; set; }
    public int TotalWeight
    { get; set; }
    public int Dept
    { get; set; }
    public bool Shipped
    { get; set; }
    public int Date
    { get; set; }
}

public class ProductOrderInfo
    {
        public int Id
        { get; set; }
        public int Count
        { get; set; }
        public int Price
        { get; set; }
        public int Weight
        { get; set; }
        public int ShareId
        { get; set; }
    }

Deserialization with JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json_string) always fails and throws an exception

JsonSerializationException: Error converting value "[{"Id": 3, "Count": 1, "Price": 1000, "Weight": 1500, "ShareId": 0}]" to type 'Project.Classes.ProductOrderInfo[]'. Path 'orders', line 6, position 92.

I've already searched for a similiar problem like this C# JSON Deserialization Error Array but it didn't help me

Change your JSON string as below

{
  "id": "1",
  "marketId": "1",
  "userId": "2",
  "svisorId": "1",
  "orders": [{"Id": 3, "Count": 1, "Price": 1000, "Weight": 1500, "ShareId":0}],
  "date": "1516770391",
  "totalWeight": "1500",
  "totalPrice": "1000",
  "debt": "1000",
  "shipped": 0
}

Error is due to the
you consider Array of orders as string and shipped is bool but consider it as a string.

Use below code for deserialization

JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<OrderInfo>(json_string)
