I’m receiving a JSON result in my ASP webapi SaveChanges action. I want to take that JSON string and convert it to an SQL Update string.

Just wondering if anyone knows what the best way to convert a JSON string to an SQL Update Query.

Here is an example of the JSON string I am receiving and the equivalent SQL:

[{"ContactID":3,"FirstName":"Tester","LastName":"Tester","DepartmentName":"Dept"}]

Which would equate to:

UPDATE Contact Set FirstName = 'Tester', LastName = 'Tester', DepartmentName = 'Dept' Where ContactID = 3

Currently I’m doing a pretty nasty for loop on a JArray to build the SQL update string. So if anyone has any other cleaner methods that would be great.
