Hello everyone and thanks for helping me in advance. The following question might sound silly but I'm a beginner about it.
I have the following json which comes from a web api:

What I need to do is to change the value of the "field" key with the value of the "label" key of its correspondent located within the complex structure (cases.version.forms.sections.rows.fields).
To make it possible to change this value, the value of the "field" key must coincide with the value of the "guid" key.
The final result should be:
{
....
"field": "SP",
"value": "14042547"
....
}
I tried to search about it but I couldn't find anything useful.
var caseInfo = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<dynamic>(apiResponse);
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse((string)caseInfo.ToString());
var fields = jObject.Descendants().OfType<JProperty>()
.Where(prop => prop.Name.Contains("field") && prop.Value.Type == JTokenType.String).ToList();
First I deserialize the response. After that I create a JObject and I take a list of Field. But after doing this I don't know how to move forward.
Again thanks to everyone in advance and I hope I was clear :)
CodePudding user response：
Using JSON Path, one can do this:
using Newtonsoft.Json;
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
// Read the JSON file.
var json = JObject.Parse(File.ReadAllText("input.json"));
// Extract label by GUID. Note that GUID case is inconsistent within the file, so we force upper case.
var labelByGuid = json.SelectTokens("cases.procedure.version.forms[*].sections[*].rows[*].fields[?(@.guid && @.label)]")
.ToDictionary(t => t["guid"]!.ToString().ToUpperInvariant(),
t => t["label"]!.ToString());
// Update entries.
foreach (var entry in json.SelectTokens("cases.content[?(@.field)]"))
{
var field = entry["field"]!.ToString().ToUpperInvariant();
if (!labelByGuid.TryGetValue(field, out var label))
continue;
entry["field"] = label;
}
// Write back the JSON object.
var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings { Formatting = Formatting.Indented };
var serializer = JsonSerializer.Create(settings);
await using var outputStream = File.CreateText(@"output.json");
serializer.Serialize(outputStream, json);
Working demo available here.
