How can I access the key under the tag/Parent Tag in Json File?

{
  "MethodParameters": {
    "operation": [ "write", "click", "text" ],
    "stepDetail": "login",
    "welcome": "Hello Bob!"
  }

if I want to get the value of "stepDetail" under "MethodParameters".

I’m trying it like this:

public static JObject? jsconfig1 = ReadJson(@"DataFilesjsconfig1.json".ToString()); 

public static string loginA = .SelectToken("MethodParameters").SelectToken("stepDetail").Value<string>();

but it does not work for me. any help is appreciated.

    Why cannot you do something like {nameOfYourObject}.MethodParameters.stepDetail?

    Why don’t try this

        using Newtonsoft.Json;

    json = File.ReadAllText(@"DataFilesjsconfig1.json");

    var methodParameters = JObject.Parse(json)["MethodParameters"];
    string loginA = (string) methodParameters["stepDetail"];

    Your json is saved in variables you can access to nested field.

    var json = [YOUR JSON];
var nestedField = json["MethodParameters"]["stepDetail"]);

    You should convert your json to an object with Newtonsoft.Json and then work with it as any object.

    This should be your class:

      public class MethodParameters
    {
        public List<string> operation { get; set; }
        public string stepDetail { get; set; }
        public string welcome { get; set; }
    }

    public class Root
    {
        public MethodParameters MethodParameters { get; set; }
    }
