Manually Creating JSON

As well as parsing JSON from existing JSON strings, LINQ to JSON objects can be created from scratch to create new JSON structures.

Manually Creating JSON Setting values and creating objects and arrays one at a time gives you total control, but it is more verbose than other options.


    
    
      Creating JSON with LINQ
      
        Declaratively creating JSON objects using LINQ is a fast way to create JSON from collections of values.


      
    

    
    
      Creating JSON from an object
      
        The last option is to create a JSON object from a non-JSON type using the
        Overload:Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.FromObject
        method. Internally, FromObject will use the JsonSerializer to serialize the object to LINQ to JSON objects instead of text.
        
        The example below shows creating a JSON object from an anonymous object, but any
        .NET type can be used with FromObject to create JSON.
