Saving to Json File format from D365

Posted on by Sabarish 80

Hi All,

I would like to save a file in Json format, I am currently using Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextWriter to create the object in D365 , I am able to convert response/payload to string format which is fine. 

Issue is , I need to save this file in Jason format, I understand Json file is a notepad with a format. 

My question , in D365 do we have any option to save it directly to .json file instead of writing a code to create a notepad with json file format? 

I have the same question (0)

    JSON is a text format. A notepad is not a format; it's a text editor on Windows, i.e. an application capable of reading and writing files. There are many such applications beside Notepad.

    I'm note sure what you're asking about, because "to create a notepad with json file" makes little sense to me. I guess it's either how to save a file in general, or how to set a file extension to .json (maybe by "to create a notepad" you mean "to create a file with .txt extension).

    You didn't tell us how you want to save the file, but if you want to give it to users for download, use something like File::SendFileToUser(stream, 'myfile.json').
