Export C# expression to json (similar export as to excel, word, html)
Hei,
Title more or less states what I would like to do. I am using queries quite a bit and sometimes it would be useful to get the data as a json string instead of datagrid.
Perhaps this is a trivial / already existing thing, but don't know how to do that.
Just as an example run:Samples.Where(s => s.SampleId == 1)
displays the datagrid view, which is great. I can click/edit/do whatever.
From this I don't know how to export result as json string.

did you try JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Samples.Where(s => s.SampleId == 1)).Dump();?

Thank you. That was not so hard. Works both with Newtonsoft.Json and System.Text.Json.
JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Samples.Where(s => s.SampleId == 1), Newtonsoft.Json.Formatting.Indented)System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Serialize<System.Linq.IQueryable<LINQPad.User.Sample>>(Samples.Where(s => s.SampleId == 1), new JsonSerializerOptions { WriteIndented = true }) -
I agree it would be nice to have this as an export option. Of course it's not so hard, but why not make it even easier?
