How do I deserialize an array of enum using Json.Net?

Question

I have a JSON like this:

[{ 
    \"agencyId\": \"myCity\",
    \"road\": {
    \"note\": \"\",
        \"lat\": \"45.321\",
        \"lon\": \"12.21\",

The StringEnumConverter expects only a single enumeration value. Because ChangeTypes is an array, you need to annotate the property a little differently to make it work.

Try this instead:

[JsonProperty("changeTypes", ItemConverterType=typeof(StringEnumConverter))]
public ChangeType[] ChangeTypes { get; set; }
