Answer 1

The value that you're seeing is the ToString() value. What you're looking for is:

response["_links"]

Answer 2

I was hitting something similar in VS 2015. The approach using [] to access the properties works, however if I enable "Just My Code" in Tools > Options > Debugging > General. I was able to use the properties on the dynamic objects as normal e.g. code like: response._links.streams; worked.

Answer 3

Yes, you are not alone, I also faced similar issue ( without hangover ;P )

I just modified the file for a space or line and rebuild the entire solution, started working fine in debug mode also...

Happy Holidays!
