Kru Comments - Answer Overflow

oh yeah, as I used string[] firstName = [ "Foo", "Bar", "Foo2", "Bar2" ]; at the top. using external file, I had to use the same logic just data input as json instead of manual.

Thanks for your patience and not providing the actual solution. I never thought I would actually use var at all.

Fixed it, I had to re-read your above statement. This solved it.

string jsonfile = File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Users\Home\Documents\CSharp\HelloWorld\RandomName\CombineFirstNameDb.json");

var sample = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<string[]>(jsonfile);

Console.WriteLine(sample[0]);

baby steps... I changed it to use this

string jsonfile = File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Users\Home\Documents\CSharp\HelloWorld\RandomName\CombineFirstNameDb.json");

string sample = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<string>(jsonfile);

Console.WriteLine(sample[0]);

Getting error below. I did confirm no error on json file that's loaded in VS and online as well.

System.Text.Json.JsonException: 'The JSON value could not be converted to System.String. Path: $ | LineNumber: 0 | BytePositionInLine: 1.'

InvalidOperationException: Cannot get the value of a token type 'StartArray' as a string.

Block of code

oh wow, this blew up. I did some digging around and found out that, VS Studio does not return the {} in the code block. See below. There are short cut you can use but no easy way to do it, unless you do the whole code block using TAB, TAB. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hmF00u2uF4
