I'm having a hard time passing the value of an object to a model.
I wanted to pass the data from this obj to the model class
SingleTransactResponse obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SingleTransactResponse>(await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
SaveTransaction(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj));
I used this function to get the data from the model and save it to the database
PayoutEntities payoutdb = new PayoutEntities();
public String SaveTransaction(payout_transaction model)
{
payoutdb.payout_transaction.Add(model);
payoutdb.SaveChanges();
return "Success";
}
SingleTransactResponse Class
public class SingleTransactResponse {
public String senderRefId { get; set; }
public String tranRequestDate { get; set; }
public String particulars { get; set; }
public List<Beneficiary> beneficiary { get; set; }
}
Beneficiary Class
public class Beneficiary
{
public String accountNumber { get; set; }
public String name { get; set; }
public List<Address> address { get; set; }
}
Address Class
public class Address
{
public String line1 { get; set; }
public String line2 { get; set; }
public String city { get; set; }
public String province { get; set; }
public String zipCode { get; set; }
public String country { get; set; }
}
payout_transaction class
public partial class payout_transaction
{
public string transid { get; set; }
public string batchid { get; set; }
public string senderRefId { get; set; }
public string requestDate { get; set; }
public string benefName { get; set; }
public string benefacctno { get; set; }
public string status { get; set; }
public string errdesc { get; set; }
public string transaction_fee { get; set; }
}
I'm just having a hard time converting the obj to the model. I've tried JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj) but it only converts it to string. Is there any possible way to do this or any work around to solve this problem?
you can do like this
var payoutModel = new payout_transaction
{
senderRefId = obj.senderRefId,
requestDate = obj.tranRequestDate,
.... other properties
}
SaveTransaction(payoutModel);
I just converted json to c# class using json2csharp.com. Then trying to pass that json from view to my controller but problem is only "create_time" object value is garbing successfully no any other value is able to grab. Also please check my debug picture to get better idea. What mistake it can be?
Json i am passing from view:

I'll assume you're on dotnet core (maybe on a migrated project?) because the code you're posting doesn't have any issues on previous versions of asp.net mvc.
If that's the case, it turns out that on dotnet core the model binding behaviour has changed a little compared to previous versions.
If you want the solution quickly just decorate the parameter of your POST action with [FromBody] attribute. It should work.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult InvoicePaid([FromBody]RootObject rootObject)
{
using (var ctx = new db_someEntities())
{
}
return Json("ok");
}
The story is a little longer though, and very interesting by the way. If you want the details, I've not found any better resource than this post from Andrew Lock.
UPDATE
I can confirm that if you add the [FromBody] on the action, (I've tested using a bare new asp.net core 2. web app project) it binds the model correctly.
Please let me know if you want me to provide the sources I've used so you can troubleshot from there.
Hope this helps!
Most probably the data being sent it not formatted properly
From comments it was indicated that the data was being sent like
$.post(hookUrl, { testJson: testJson }).done(function (data) { console.log(data); });
consider formatting the data and including the content type
var data = JSON.stringify(testJson); //replace content with your JSObject
$.post(hookUrl, data, null, "application/json")
.done(function (data) { console.log(data); });
Or using the longer syntax
var data = JSON.stringify(testJson); //replace content with your JSObject
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: hookUrl,
data: data,
dataType: "application/json",
success: function (data) { console.log(data); }
});
You need to use [FromBody], so MVC knows where to look for the data.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult InvoicePaid([FromBody]RootObject rootObject)
I've got this class in my Model:
public class GetDocParams {
public string LogonTicket { get; set; }
public int CliRid { get; set; }
public string[] ValPairs { get; set; }
public string SortBy { get; set; }
public int StartRec { get; set; }
public int EndRec { get; set; }
}
This is going to be used as input to a WebApi2 function to retrieve query results from Entity Framework.
The function takes the valPairs from input and uses it to build a query that sorts by the passed pairs, i.e.
CLI_RID=111111
DOC_NAME=Letter
would create the SQL:
WHERE CLI_RID = 111111
AND DOC_NAME = 'Letter'
I'm kind of curious, how would I pass the ValPairs, using ajax and/or WebClient?
GET or POST doesn't matter.
You may have to add a new class for ValPair, like the following.
public class GetDocParams {
public string LogonTicket { get; set; }
public int CliRid { get; set; }
public ValPair[] ValPairs { get; set; }
public string SortBy { get; set; }
public int StartRec { get; set; }
public int EndRec { get; set; }
}
public class ValPair {
public int CLI_RID { get; set; }
public string DOC_NAME { get; set; }
}
And you can pass values to the parameters via the following GET API call:
http://www.example.com/api/docs/getDocParams?LogonTicket=111&ValPairs[0][CLI_RID]=111111&ValPairs[0][DOC_NAME]=Letter&ValPairs[1][CLI_RID]=22222&ValPairs[1][DOC_NAME]=document&....
This should work if you know the names of the keys.
I have an array nested in an object in a JSON string which I need deserialized at the server:
var orderStatus = {"auth": "xxxx", "resourceType": "order.status", "idSet": "2980", "lifecycleEvent": "modified", "objects": { "orders": [ { "id": "2980", "statusId": "6" } ] }
I use Robert Koritnik's plugin like this:
$.ajax({url: "receiveJson", type: "POST", data: $.toDictionary(orderStatus) });
My .net class file is:
public class orders
{
public string Id { get; set; }
public string statusId { get; set; }
}
public class objects
{
public orders orders { get; set; }
}
public class OrderStatus
{
public string clientName { get; set; }
public string source { get; set; }
public string auth { get; set; }
public string resourceType { get; set; }
public string idSet { get; set; }
public string lifecycleEvent { get; set; }
public objects objects { get; set; }
}
my controller code is:
public JsonResult receiveJson(OrderStatus orderStatus)
So the orders object is the array. It works up to creating orders as an object but id and status id in the orders object are null.
I have no control over the JSON I will receive, it has to be in this format.
I am new to JSON and .NET MVC. Don't know how to specify server side orders object as an array.
Fixed it by slightly amending my server side classes:
public class order
{
public string Id { get; set; }
public string statusId { get; set; }
}
public class objects
{
public List<order> orders { get; set; }
}
public class OrderStatus
{
public string clientName { get; set; }
public string source { get; set; }
public string auth { get; set; }
public string resourceType { get; set; }
public string idSet { get; set; }
public string lifecycleEvent { get; set; }
public objects objects { get; set; }
}
So the "orders" class has been changed to "order". "objects.orders" property is amended to be a list.
Now the jsondata is deserialized all the way down.
First of all, I'm new to MVC.
I want to display the properties of the JSON response in a html view.
For example, i want to get the number of page likes from the JSON response and display just the number of likes on a page.
Any help is much appreciated :)
//

Your action should pass the object to the view:
public ActionResult Index()
{
var json = new WebClient().DownloadString("https://graph.facebook.com/google");
var root=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(json);
return view(root);
}
and then in your view you can show whichever property you want:
#Model RootObject
<html>
<head>
<title>Showing properties</title>
</head>
<body>
#Model.likes likes.
</body>
</html>
This is if you use the Razor syntax.
you're missing
return view(root);
You should pass the object back to view to use it.
you can use JsonResult in mvc 4,
public JsonResult ReturnSomeJson()
{
JsonResult result = new JsonResult();
//Assign some json value to result.
//Allow get is used to get the value in view.
return view(result,AllowGet.True);
}
I was looking for a similar solution and I found it to be a bit different:
[HttpGet]
public JsonResult Index() {
// your code
return Json("some result string or value", JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
This outputs "some result string or value" in your browser when you call this action directly.
Assuming this is a normal action inside a controller that
inherits from Controller class.
