    <p>I have an umbraco website with the following content structure: (the text in brackets is the nodeTypeAlias)</p> <pre><code>[root] - [child] | - [module] | | - [submodule] | | - [submodule] - [child] | - [module] | - [module] | | - [submodule] </code></pre> <p>I am trying to export the above structure (together with the node's properties) into the following json file:</p> <pre><code>{ "root": { "child": [ { "id": "1", "name": "Child 1", "module": [ { "id": "2", "name": "Module 1", "submodule": [ { "id": "3", "name": "Sub module 1" }, { "id": "4", "name": "Sub module 3" } ] } ] }, { "id": "5", "name": "Child 5", "module": [ { "id": "8", "name": "Module 8" }, { "id": "6", "name": "Module 6", "submodule": [ { "id": "7", "name": "Sub module 7" }, { "id": "9", "name": "Sub module 9" } ] } ] } ] } } </code></pre> <p>So far I've wrote down the following code in Linqpad but the result is not the one that I was looking for.</p> <pre><code>List&lt;Node&gt; brands = new List&lt;Node&gt;() { new Node { id = 1, name = "Brand 1", type = "brand", children = new List&lt;Node&gt; { new Node { id = 2, name = "Shelf 1", type = "shelf", children = new List&lt;Node&gt; { new Node { id = 1, name = "Bookcase 1", type = "bookcase" }, new Node { id = 2, name = "Bookcase 2", type = "bookcase" }, new Node { id = 3, name = "Bookcase 3", type = "bookcase" } } }, new Node { id = 3, name = "Shelf 2", type = "shelf", children = new List&lt;Node&gt; { new Node { id=1, type= "module", name = "Module 1" }, new Node { id=2, type= "pdf", name = "PDF 1" }, new Node { id=3, type= "link", name = "Link 1" }, new Node { id=4, type= "link", name = "Link 2" }, } } } }, new Node { id = 2, name = "Brand 2", type = "brand", children = new List&lt;Node&gt; { new Node { id = 2, name = "Shelf 1", type = "shelf", }, new Node { id = 3, name = "Shelf 2", type = "shelf", } } } }; Result container = new Result(); Action&lt;List&lt;Node&gt;, Result&gt; add = null; add = (nodes, coll) =&gt; { List&lt;Result&gt; list = null; if(nodes != null &amp;&amp; nodes.Count &gt; 0) { nodes.Dump("nodes"); foreach(var node in nodes) { string key = node.type; list = null; if(coll.Children.ContainsKey(key)) { list = coll.Children[key]; } else { list = new List&lt;Result&gt;(); } Result r = new Result(); r.Name = node.name; add(node.children, r); list.Add(r); coll.Children[key] = list; coll.Dump("coll"); } } }; add(brands, container); container.Dump(); var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer(); serializer.Serialize(container).Dump(); } public class Result { public Result() { this.Children = new Dictionary&lt;string, List&lt;Result&gt;&gt;(); this.Properties = new Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt;(); } public string Name {get;set;} public Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt; Properties {get;set;} public Dictionary&lt;string, List&lt;Result&gt;&gt; Children {get;set;} } public class Node { public string name{get;set;} public string type {get;set;} public int id {get;set;} public List&lt;Node&gt; children{get;set;} </code></pre> <p>result:</p> <pre><code>{ "Name": null, "Properties": {}, "Children": { "brand": [ { "Name": "Brand 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": { "shelf": [ { "Name": "Shelf 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": { "bookcase": [ { "Name": "Bookcase 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} }, { "Name": "Bookcase 2", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} }, { "Name": "Bookcase 3", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} } ] } }, { "Name": "Shelf 2", "Properties": {}, "Children": { "module": [ { "Name": "Module 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} } ], "pdf": [ { "Name": "PDF 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} } ], "link": [ { "Name": "Link 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} }, { "Name": "Link 2", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} } ] } } ] } }, { "Name": "Brand 2", "Properties": {}, "Children": { "shelf": [ { "Name": "Shelf 1", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} }, { "Name": "Shelf 2", "Properties": {}, "Children": {} } ] } } ] } } </code></pre> <p>Any idea?</p> <p>Thanks.</p>

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
