accessing json property with given values
var orderJson = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<dynamic>(httpResultStr); var orderidCount = orderJson.data.orderUuids.Count; for (int i = 0; i <= orderidCount; i++) { var orderId = orderJson.data.orderUuids[i]; // my fail attempt. Didnt work var map = orderJson.data.ordersMap; foreach (var d in map) { var receipt = d.fareInfo.totalPrice; Console.WriteLine(receipt); } } Im trying to access the ordersMap members with the given values in orderUuids object. Inside the ordersMap Ids contain the fareInfo.totalPrice property that I’m trying to access. How would I go about achieving this?

You can make a partial/full map using the JSON file and use JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<>(json).
Other solution could be create a partial map using an anonymous type. Here is a code snip.
var anonymousTypeObject = new { status = "", data = new { ordersMap = new Dictionary<string, JToken>(), orderUuids = new string[0] } }; var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(json, anonymousTypeObject); foreach (var kvp in obj.data.ordersMap) { var totalPrice = kvp.Value["fareInfo"]?["totalPrice"]?.ToString(); Debug.WriteLine($"{kvp.Key} -> {totalPrice}"); } EDIT If you don’t want any map use this solution.
var jObj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JObject>(json); var orderUuids = jObj.SelectToken("data.orderUuids")?.Values<string>(); foreach (var orderUuid in orderUuids) { var totalPrice = jObj.SelectToken($"data.ordersMap.{orderUuid}.fareInfo.totalPrice")?.Value<double>(); Debug.WriteLine($"{orderUuid} -> {totalPrice}"); }
