无法将JSON对象从Rest Client传递到MVC4控制器C＃

Question

I am calling the Controller action from Postman RestClient and passing the object but I am receiving values as 0.

Request URL : http://localhost:27266/ImageProcessing/CreateThumbnail

POST data :

{
"data":{
    "Width":140
    "Height":140
    }
}   

to

[HttpPost]
[ValidateInput(false)]
public JsonResult CreateThumbnail(InputDataModel data )
{
  return Json(new { Height = "0"});
}

where InputDataModel is

public class InputDataModel 
{
    public int Width { get; set; }

    public int Height { get; set; }
}

I am receiving Width and Height as 0.

Am I missing anything.?

Answer 1

I don't think the mapper will trawl the whole object tree to map - it needs to be told where to look, for example:

public class YourModel
{
    public InputDataModel data { get; set; }
}

public class InputDataModel 
{
    public int Width { get; set; }

    public int Height { get; set; }
}

Or you can adjust the JSON to conform to the InputDataModel , so it should have two members named Width and Height ... not nested inside the data property.
