Check if JSON contains something C#

Basically I get the current item stock from Supreme in JSON. Then I deserialize it to object. I have been trying to check if the object contains the desired item, and get its id.

Based on the data coming back from that endpoint, you probably need to look a little deeper, which is easiest to do with JObject's SelectToken method.

    var shop_object = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JObject>(shop_json);
    Console.WriteLine(shop_object);

    try
    {
        if (shop_object.SelectTokens("$..name").Any(t => t.Value<string>() == DesiredItem))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\n \n The desired item is in stock");
        }
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("error keyword");
    }

Note that this uses an equality check on the string, so little details like the space at the end of "Reversible Bandana Fleece Jacket " can potentially throw you off.
