Correct JSON structure using RestSharp - json

Question

What is the Correct format for sending JSON using RestSharp:
Example PUT JSON:
{
"properties": [
{
"name": "description",
"value": "A far better description than before"
}
]
}
In C# how to correctly send, I'm attempting with:
request.AddJsonBody(new
{
properties = new[]
{
new{property="name",value="about_us"},
new{property="value",value="My description"}
}
});
Below is the full code:
private void UpdateCompanyProperty(string companyId)
{
var hapikey = "{YOUR_HAPI_KEY_HERE}";
var client = new RestClient("https://api.hubapi.com/");
var request = new RestRequest("companies/v2/companies/{companyId}", Method.PUT);
request.AddUrlSegment("companyId", companyId);
request.AddQueryParameter("hapikey", hapikey);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
request.AddJsonBody(new
{
properties = new[]
{
new{property="name",value="about_us"},
new{property="value",value="My description"}
}
});
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(response.Content);
JToken jvid = jObject["portalId"];
Debug.WriteLine(jvid);
}
No errors but not updating or returning values.

Try my answer here:

request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json; // Important
var input = new Dictionary<string, object>();
// props could be an array or real objects too of course
var props = new[]
{
new{property="name",value="about_us"},
new{property="value",value="My description"}
};
input.Add("properties", props);
request.AddBody(input);

Create a class and give it any name
class MyClass
{
public string property {get;set;}
private string value {get;set;}
}
Define your class as an object
List<MyClass> list = new List<MyClass>
{
new MyClass() { property = "name", value = "about_us"},
new MyClass() { property = "value", value = "My Description"},
};
Now using Newtonsoft.Json serialize your object
string result = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list);
Now add it to an array
var resArray = new object[] { result };
Find your modified code below
class MyClass
{
public string property {get;set;}
private string value {get;set;}
}
using Newtonsoft.Json;
using RestSharp;
private void UpdateCompanyProperty(string companyId)
{
List<MyClass> list = new List<MyClass>
{
new MyClass() { property = "name", value = "about_us"},
new MyClass() { property = "value", value = "My Description"},
};
string result = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list);
var hapikey = "{YOUR_HAPI_KEY_HERE}";
var client = new RestClient("https://api.hubapi.com/");
var request = new RestRequest("companies/v2/companies/{companyId}", Method.PUT);
request.AddUrlSegment("companyId", companyId);
request.AddQueryParameter("hapikey", hapikey);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
request.AddJsonBody(new
{
properties =result
});
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(response.Content);
JToken jvid = jObject["portalId"];
Debug.WriteLine(jvid);
}
