It's about the eBay API "GetOrders".
If I have more than one order in the given period of time my following code works. But if only one order is read then the "OrderArray.Order" is not an array and this gives the following exception.
Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: 'Cannot deserialize the current JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) into type 'Order[]' because the type requires a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) to deserialize correctly.
To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) or change the deserialized type so that it is a normal .NET type (e.g. not a primitive type like integer, not a collection type like an array or List<T>) that can be deserialized from a JSON object. JsonObjectAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON object.
Path 'GetOrdersResponse.OrderArray.Order.OrderID', line 1, position 352.'
Here my Code:
GetOrdersResponseJSON orderResp = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<GetOrdersResponseJSON>(json);
foreach (var item in orderResp.GetOrdersResponse.OrderArray.Order)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.TransactionArray.Transaction.Buyer.Email);
}

What can I do to make it work with only one order (without array) and with multiple orders (with array)? Since I would like to continue using newtonsoft json it would be nice if I get a solution with newtonsoft json!
Here is an example of the json that I get:
// One Order I get as JSON:
[...]
"OrderArray": {
"Order": {
[...]
// Multiple Orders I get as JSON:
[...]
"OrderArray": {
"Order": [
[...]
So definitely once an array and once an object!
