I have below JSON input data coming from Queue

{
"ID": 0501,
"AssetId": "EFT0501"
}

JsonLint.com shows it's invalid JSON because number starts with 0.

In my .Net code, I'm able to parse this value but ID field value gets change.

Code 

var test = JObject.Parse(message);

Output

{
"ID": 321,
"AssetId": "EFT0501"
}

Any suggestion Why is this value getting change? how to fix, If I can't change input format?

    The number is interpreted as an octal number, 501 (octal) = 321 (decimal). – Dirk May 07 '19 at 12:24

  • json does not support octal datatype, you have to change it to string or just receive it as decimal then change it back to octal.. – Donald May 07 '19 at 12:55
