Hi Andrey,
Please take a look on the following posts that cover JSON deserialization with JsonUtils component. Most probably it will cover your needs and you don't have to introduce custom type.

Just create a .net component class and add the reference in .os project and add the same in toolbox to display the component methods in the toolbox. Drag the required method into automation and extract the proxy of result then it will the properties.
Attached the doc for reference.

Ok, but if i neet to find it in pick type? Can I do this? I've add my .dll file with data type to the references, but it doesn't appear in the pick type menu.

Try by writing JSON convert methods in dll and use those methods in the automation. This method will take json string as input and output can be class object, datatable, etc...
You can pick types from your attached screenshot but I didn't experiment for custom .dll data types.
