A quick google search shows that you are likely not passing JSON into the deserialize object method.

c# - Unexpected character encountered while parsing value - Stack Overflow[^]

Given you didn't provide much of a code sample, I'm going to say that response.Content isn't actually a string and is where you issue is coming in.

You need to ensure that response.Content is a string and not a HttpResponseMessage.

Also, if response.Content is how I think it is being used. You probably need to use it with the ReadAsString method in order to get it into a string format for Deserialization.

Solution 2

var respContent = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<dataset>(respContent);
