Consume Json Services
Description
JSON is a lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write.
The following lines of code show what a JSON message looks like:
[
{
"Id":"1",
"Date":"2014-03 14",
"Time":"12:19:47"
},
{
"Id":"32",
"Date":"2008-03-14",
"Time":"22:43:09"
}
]
The information is represented as a collection of key/value pairs. Each key/value pair is grouped into an ordered list of objects.
The following code shows how to Consume Json Services.
