POWebAPI Model Binding from JSON
text
Body
copied!<p>I am creating an application using Durandal, with WebAPI as the server. I have a KendoUI grid that displays the data from the server correctly and functions properly until the POST or PUT methods are called. Here is my GET method: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/vRKg2.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>and you can see that that data binds to the UI (used the <a href="http://durandaljs.com/documentation/KendoUI/" rel="noreferrer">data-bind extensibility</a> in Durandal to change to kendo bindings): <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/BpV9p.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Then I edit the data in the Grid and it passes the changes inside the request to the server as you can see in this Fiddler result: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/YTVum.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>On the server side I cannot get the data that is passed from the client to bind to anything I place as a parameter for the method on the POST or PUT. <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zb6MD.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>I realize this is a couple different technologies to troubleshoot (e.g. Durandal, KnockoutJs, Kendo DataBinding, and WebAPI) but I think the fundamentals are working, the data is retrieved and bound to the UI and it is posted back when changed, but the WebAPI endpoint cannot bind to the data.</p> <p>How can I get the passed "models" array to bind through the ModelBinding structure in WebAPI?</p> <p>UPDATE- Here is the helpful JSFiddle that gave me the correct Content-Type to add: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/Xhrrj/1/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/Xhrrj/1/</a></p> <p><code>new kendo.data.DataSource({ transport: { read: { type: "POST", url: "../cccs/service.svc/SupplierSearch", contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8", dataType: 'json'...</code></p> <p>this is coming from the Telerik forum <a href="http://www.kendoui.com/forums/framework/data-source/problem-with-datasource-post-request-for-read-operation.aspx" rel="noreferrer">here</a></p>
