How to deserialize a JSON to POCO based on the fact that the JSON is never the same. This includes the number of attribute, the type of attribute etc.

Basically I want to take in a variety of JSON and convert it to C# class object. I know it can be done, but I just have no idea how.

For clarity, I currently have this, where the url is dynamic.

var json = wc.DownloadString(url);

How could I retrieve an object from this JSON?

Deserialize to `dynamic`. – ProgrammingLlama Sep 12 '18 at 05:37

Classes are determined on compile-time and not on run-time. The best you can do is to use `dynamic`. – jegtugado Sep 12 '18 at 05:42
