Add string array to a JObject

Question

I tried

JObject obj = new JObject();
obj["item1"] =  new string[] {"a","b"};

and got

Cannot implicitly convert type 'string[]' to 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken'

How do I add a string array to a JObject? Also, why do I get that error?

Answer 1

Try this way:

JObject obj = new JObject();
obj.Add("item1", JToken.FromObject(new[] { "a", "b" }));
