Get JSON From URL Using jQuerygetJSON(url, data, success) is the signature method for getting JSON from an URL. In this case, the URL is a string that ensures the exact location of data, and data is just an object sent to the server. And if the request gets succeeded, the status comes through the success .
String data can be easily converted to JSON using the stringify() function, and also it can be done using eval() , which accepts the JavaScript expression that you will learn about in this guide.
JSON Web Services let you access portal service methods by exposing them as a JSON HTTP API. Service methods are made easily accessible using HTTP requests, both from JavaScript within the portal and from any JSON-speaking client.
Use the WebClient class in System.Net:
var json = new WebClient().DownloadString("url");
Keep in mind that WebClient is IDisposable, so you would probably add a using statement to this in production code. This would look like:
using (WebClient wc = new WebClient())
{
var json = wc.DownloadString("url");
}
AFAIK JSON.Net does not provide functionality for reading from a URL. So you need to do this in two steps:
using (var webClient = new System.Net.WebClient()) {
var json = webClient.DownloadString(URL);
// Now parse with JSON.Net
}
If you're using .NET 4.5 and want to use async then you can use HttpClient in System.Net.Http:
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
var json = await httpClient.GetStringAsync("url");
// Now parse with JSON.Net
}
