Send Json Data to MVC Web API Through Post Request

Question

hi..

How to send Json Data to Web API using Post Request.

My Json value is like below.

var json123 = {

"firstname": {
"value": "john",
"versions": [
{
"value": "john",
"selected": false
},
"lastname": {
"value": "paul",
"versions": [
{
"value": "paul",
"selected": false
},
"email": {
"value": "[email protected]",
"versions": [
{
"value": "[email protected]",
"selected": false
},

}

Here I need to pass all data to my post request and after receiving the request i need to take the each attribute value through c# only.

How to do this..

Hi jagan. I have used that too. But i will not get the value in my post method. How to handle this. Can u tel which post method i need to follow. (i.e) whether it is frombody or httprequestmessage) is it possible give me a example for the above scenario. That will be very helpful. Regards Gopal.s

Instead of using data: { : json123 } try data: JSON.stringify(json123).

Hi jagan Thax for your reply. window.onload = function () { var json123 = { firstname: { value: john versions: [ { value: john selected: false } lastname: { value: paul versions: [ { value: paul selected: false } email: { value: john@gmail.com versions: [ { value: john@gmail.com selected: false } } insertData(json123); } function insertData(data) { jQuery.support.cors = true; debugger; var json123 = data; $.ajax({ url: 'http://localhost:53549/api/signup/register' type: POST data: { : json123 } contenttype: 'application/json;charset=utf-8' dataType: json success: function (data) { alert(data); } Here i have used the following post code. But none of them are worked. [System.Web.Http.HttpPost] // public int register([FromBody]string JSONData) public HttpResponseMessage register(HttpRequestMessage req) // public HttpResponseMessage register([FromBody]string Prod) { } But i need to pass the whole data into my post rest service. after receiving the values from the api then only i need to take the column value using c#. Here what i am missing. How to achieve this. Regards Gopal.s
