'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JArray' contains no definition

Question

I am trying to use this code:

string s = "[{status:1,fields:[{name:'n1',value:'v1'}]}]";
dynamic o = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(s);
var f = o.fields[0].name;

but line 3 gives this error, how did it happen? How do you get this data?

It should be

 string s = "[{status:1,fields:[{name:'n1',value:'v1'}]}]";
 dynamic o = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(s);
 var f = o[0].fields[0].name;

Here o is an array object that contains the elements and you want the first one

o

- array; you need to get the first element from it:

o[0].fields[0].name
