Protobuf doesn't directly support deserialization like this. You could use JsonFormatter <https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/csharp/class/google/protobuf/json-formatter> to convert to JSON and deserialize from there. Your best option is probably to look into third party libraries that provide deserialization functionality for protobufs.
