Is there a reason you did not put the string in quotes ?

Solution 1

Locate DatabaseId in the string. From that locaton take a substring till the ',' character.
That should give you the id.

You can write different methods to find the Dataset ID. This might be very useful to get the ID.

C#

private void FindMethod()
{
   string str="{ DatasetID = 13, DatasetName = Assigned Form Submission }";
   int first = str.IndexOf("=") + "=".Length;
   int last = str.LastIndexOf(",");
   string str2 = str.Substring(first, last - first).Trim();
   System.Console.WriteLine("DataSet ID: '{0}'", str2);
}

Solution 2

Rapid solution :

C#

string str="{ DatasetID = 13, DatasetName = Assigned Form Submission }";
            string DatasetId = str.Substring(str.IndexOf('=')+1,str.IndexOf(',')-str.IndexOf('=')-1).Trim();

But you should parse all and create an object from it
