Creating an array from json String variable

Question

"[\"1454\",\"1455\",\"1456\",\"1457\",\"1458\",\"1459\"]"

I am getting a json string in my string variable in a action method that I am sending as json.stringify. These Are the id's of selected rows from jqgrid..

I just want to create an array of the Id's I am getting . I do not want the others like backslash or forward or double qutes.

Can you pl.Help me . How is this possible in C#

Controller::
 public ActionResult ExportSelectedData(string SelectedRows)
        {
}

View Code::
function genGraph() {
        // location.href = "/WebReports/BatchReport";
        var selRowIds = $("#list1").jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selarrrow');
        var Array = JSON.stringify(selRowIds);

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: '/WebReports/ExportSelectedData',
            data: "{'SelectedRows':'" + Array + "'}",
            contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
            dataType: 'json',
            success: function (returnValue) {
                location.href = "/WebReports/Download?file=" + returnValue.File;
            }
        });
        alert(Array);

Probably it will be easier for you to use selRowIds.join() (or selRowIds.join(",")) to make string 1454,1455,1456,1457,1458,1459 instead of ["1454","1455","1456","1457","1458","1459"]. So you can use data: {SelectedRows: selRowIds.join()} as parameter of Ajax. On the server side you can use string[] selRows = SelectedRows.split(','); to parse the data. — Oleg

You can try to use the approach with ModelBinder or simple use object with int[] or string[] as a property here alternatively. — Oleg

this should work use Newtonsoft.Json Library

string[] strings = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<string[]>(jsonData);

below is the fiddle

Hello Sir. The above thing is working quite well but can it be possible to get the json string in simple string object and not as an string array?
