Hi Jacob,

Use WebRequest object to call third party json service:

Include following package:

using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;

 Example:

WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("Json service path");
 
string JsonString;
 
try
{
 
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse(); 
using (Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream())
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
JsonString = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
 
JavaScriptSerializer ScriptSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer(); 
dynamic JsonObject = ScriptSerializer.Deserialize<dynamic>(JsonString);
//use JsonObject to retrieve json data
}catch (WebException ex)
WebResponse errorResponse = ex.Response; 
using (Stream responseStream = errorResponse.GetResponseStream())
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream, System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("utf-8")); 
String errorText = reader.ReadToEnd(); 
// log errorText
}
}
