Newtonsoft.Json: Error reading JObject from JsonReader. Current JsonReader item is not an object: StartArray

Hi I am passing the below string in my code in line var json = JObject.Parse(jStr); and I get the error as

System.Private.CoreLib: Exception while executing function: Function1. Newtonsoft.Json: Error reading JObject from JsonReader. Current JsonReader item is not an object: StartArray.

Can someone please explain me how should I fix this. Is it because it is an array kind? At the end my passed string will be an array. how can I fix this?. here is the sample string(one object from the array) which I am passing in above line

You have to wrap your string to make a valid json object:

var json = JObject.Parse("{ \"Data\":" + jStr + "}");

The resulting object will contain property Data with data from json

edited by comments: OR try this approach:

foreach(JObject obj in JArray.Parse(jStr))
{
    // todo: pass an object to a method that requires an JObject to process
}

Your example is a single object inside an array.

@SeeSharp propose to wrap that array.

The opposite way is, if that's always the case, that you can just parse the object inside that array (removing first and last character):

var json = JObject.Parse(jStr.Remove(str.Length - 1).Remove(0, 1));

Otherwise, I guess you just adapt your code to handle an array, and not an object (which looks the better way to do so)

EDIT :

Since there is multiple object inside your JArray, just iterate over it :

foreach (JObject item in JArray.Parse(jStr)) 
{
  DoStuffOnJObject(item) // call your method
}
