private list<cuentaobtener> mcuenta;  btnlogin.click += async(object sender, eventargs e) =>             {                 string url = "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/cuenta_ci/" + ci.text + "";                 jsonvalue json = await obtenerci(url);  private async task<jsonvalue> obtenerci(string url)         {             httpwebrequest request = (httpwebrequest)httpwebrequest.create(new uri(url));             request.contenttype = "application/json";             request.method = "get";              // send request server , wait response:             using (webresponse response = await request.getresponseasync())             {                 // stream representation of http web response:                 using (stream stream = response.getresponsestream())                 {                     // use stream build json document object:                     jsonvalue jsondoc = await task.run(() => jsonobject.load(stream));  //code convert jsonobject list<t>                       // return json document:                     return jsondoc;                 }             } 

this class want store values:

public class cuentaobtener     {         public int id_cuenta { get; set; }         public string nombre { get; set; }         public string apellido { get; set; }         public int ci { get; set; }         public int telefono { get; set; }         public string dispositivo_id { get; set; }         public string password { get; set; }       } 

how can achieve this? thank in advance!

you need download nuget package (right click project > manager nuget packages)

then can use :

string json = null; using (streamreader stream = new streamreader(response.getresponsestream())) {     json = stream.readtoend(); }  list<cuentaobtener> jsonconvert.deserializeobject<list<cuentaobtener>>(json); 

if you're using httpclient:

var response = await httpclient.getasync(url); string json = await response.content.readasstringasync(); list<cuentaobtener> jsonconvert.deserializeobject<list<cuentaobtener>>(json);
