The <xref:System.Convert.ToInt32%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method uses <xref:System.Int32.Parse%2A> internally. The `Parse` method returns the converted number; the `TryParse` method returns a boolean value that indicates whether the conversion succeeded, and returns the converted number in an `out` parameter.

Then, to deserialize from a string or a file, call the <xref:System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Deserialize%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method.
