Remove double curly braces while creating JObject C#

I am trying to create JsonObject with the below-mentioned structure.

{
      "id": "1",
      "name": "XXX",
      "age": "30"
    }

Using the code,

dynamic sampleJson = new JObject();
                sampleJson.Add("id", "1");
                sampleJson.Add("name", "XXX");
                sampleJson.Add("age", "30");

But the problem is that extra curly braces is appearing at the begining and end of the json structure, as shown below.

{{
  "id": "1",
  "name": "XXX",
  "age": "30"
}}

I use the required JSON structure as the post body of an API and it should be in the JSON format(So cant use JSON string structure using ToString() method).How can I remove the extra braces and achieve my requirement ???

ToString() didn't work for me. The following did:

JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(JSONStringHere, typeof(ExpandoObject));

Since you are using a JObject, you can simply call the ToString() override to create your JSON. For example:

JObject sampleJson = new JObject();
sampleJson.Add("id", "1");
sampleJson.Add("name", "XXX");
sampleJson.Add("age", "30");

var json = sampleJson.ToString();

Now your json variable will contain:

{
  "id": "1",
  "name": "XXX",
  "age": "30"
}
