I need to understand how to cast a complex deserialized  Json object to enumerable so that it can be bound to an a gridview

           var enumerable = new[] { GetBuilds().Result};
                       

            GridView1.DataSource = enumerable;
            GridView1.DataBind();

Hi,

Try to create a List<T> from GetBuilds().Result, where T is the type of the elements contained in the Result.

var enumerable = new List<>(GetBuilds().Result);
GridView1.DataSource = enumerable;
 GridView1.DataBind();

End up with the following:

            dynamic DevOpsJSONObj = GetWorkItems.GetWorkItemsz().Result;

            List<DevOpsWorkItems> items = new List<DevOpsWorkItems>();

            for (int i = 0; i < DevOpsJSONObj.Count; i++)
            {
                items.Add(new DevOpsWorkItems
                {
                    ID = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemId,
                    Title = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemTitle,
                    WorkItemType = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemWorkItemType,
                    State = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemState,
                    Created = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemCreatedDate,
                    CreatedBy = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemCreatedBy.DisplayName,
                    Modified = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemChangedDate,
                    ModifiedBy = DevOpsJSONObj.Value[i].Fields.SystemChangedBy.DisplayName
                });
            }
