I have a a view model that looks like.
public class StoreItemViewModel
{
public Guid ItemId { get; set; }
public List<Guid> StoreIds { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Description { get; set; }
//[Required]
//[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public int ItemTypeId { get; set; }
}
I have a small helper that using is using RestSharp.
public static IRestResponse Create<T>(object objectToUpdate, string apiEndPoint) where T : new()
{
var client = new RestClient(CreateBaseUrl(null))
{
Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("user", "Password1")
};
var request = new RestRequest(apiEndPoint, Method.POST);
//request.JsonSerializer = new JsonSerializer();
// {RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json};
request.AddObject(objectToUpdate);
// clientJsonSerializer = new YourCustomSerializer();
var response = client.Execute<T>(request);
return response;
}
When debugging the controller within my api
[HttpPost]
public HttpResponseMessage Create([FromBody]StoreItemViewModel myProduct)
{
//check fields are valid
.........
}
myProducts products are all populated apart from the public List StoreIds it always is returning a single reward with an empty Guid. Even if I have added 2 or more StoreIds
I assume this is because I am doing something wrong with my Create helper within my application.
Can anyone help with this its causing a major headache.
The raw data sent to the webapi is looking like
ItemId=f6dbd244-e840-47e1-9d09-53cc64cd87e6&ItemTypeId=6&Description=blabla&StoreIds=d0f36ef4-28be-4d16-a2e8-37030004174a&StoreIds=f6dbd244-e840-47e1-9d09-53cc64cd87e6&StoreId=d0f36ef4-28be-4d16-a2e8-37030004174a
RestSharp now has a more streamlined way to add an object to the RestRequest Body with Json Serialization:
public static IRestResponse Create<T>(object objectToUpdate, string apiEndPoint) where T : new()
{
var client = new RestClient(CreateBaseUrl(null))
{
Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("user", "Password1")
};
var request = new RestRequest(apiEndPoint, Method.POST);
request.AddJsonBody(objectToUpdate); // HERE
var response = client.Execute<T>(request);
return response;
}
