The type or namespace name 'Newtonsoft' could not be found

I am calling an external REST API and I am attempting to use Newtonsoft for decoding JSON response. I’m getting this error(subject) when adding a using statement. Please note I’m running 10.2.400.5(I know it’s old but ownership won’t approve an upgrade…), and I can see the dll is included in the Client/ directory. What am I doing wrong?

I also have a reference to Newtonsoft.Json

An aside on the 10.2.400 to 11.x it is not that big of a move if you stay classic and it keeps you on target.

Can you share a screenshot of your references tab, you have to add the dll there as a reference. Just adding the using is not enough
