I am having some problems parsing my model in ASP.NET MVC API
This is my API controller:
public class UserController : ApiController
{
// Hent liste af personer
public IEnumerable<UserModel> Get()
{
return new UserModel[] { new UserModel(), new UserModel() };
}
// Hente enkelt person
public UserModel Get(int id)
{
return new UserModel();
}
// Opret person
[ValidationActionFilter]
public CreateUserRespose Post([FromBody]UserModel model)
{
CreateUserRespose rs = new CreateUserRespose();
return rs;
}
// Rediger person
public UserModel Put(int id, [FromBody]UserModel model)
{
return new UserModel();
}
// Slet person
public UserModel Delete(int id)
{
return new UserModel();
}
}
}
And the UserModel:
public class UserModel
{
[Required]
[StringLength(500)]
public String FristName { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(500)]
public String LastName { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(250)]
public String Email { get; set; }
[Required]
public String MatrikelId { get; set; }
}
When I call though Fiddler to the Post command with the following body
FirstName=Fistname MiddleName&LastName=SomeName&[email protected]&MatrikelId=1234
Will the action Post be called, but the model is null, and ModelState.IsValid is true, the same happens if I send no data with the body! What am I doing wrong here?
Update: I have tryed sending the data as json instead Fiddler:
User-Agent: Fiddler
Host: localhost:51268
Content-Length: 102
Content-type: application/json
{"FristName":"Kasper asdasd","LastName":"asdasdasd","Email":"[email protected]","MatrikelId":"132456asd"}
But should the model state not be invalid when the model is null?
Content-Typeheader value in your request?[FromBody]infront of the parametersapplication/x-www-form-urlencodedit should resolve the issue. If you confirm it was your issue I will describe details in answer.
