How to Bind JSON datasource directly to Datagrid in .net MAUI

Hi Herman,

RadDataGrid works with only one specific object type passed to the control by the ItemsSource property. That means that you can visualize one type of data at a time. The DataGrid control cannot convert the json of the JObject to a type. This should be done by the Newtonsoft.Json package and after that the object could be set as a source for the DataGrid and be visualized as expected:

public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
	public MainPage()	{
		InitializeComponent();

        JObject o1 = JObject.Parse(@"{
		'FirstName': 'John',
		'LastName': 'Smith',
		}");

        Person p1 = o1.ToObject<Person>();

        this.dataGrid.ItemsSource = new List<Person>() { p1 };
    }

    public class Person
    {
        public string FirstName { get; set; }
        public string LastName { get; set; }
    }
}

And the xaml:

<telerik:RadDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid" />

There isn't an option to directly pass the json to the DataGrid ItemsSource.

I hope this information answers your question.
