I have a serialised object
{
a: “test”,
B[1].Name : “test”,
B[1].Surname : “testing”,
Etc.
But when I sent this object in using ajax Post method in cshtml file, my model is setting the list of b to null
When I’m actual fact I am sending data, but not in the correct format for the controller to understand
How do I serialise the object even further to send the correct model to the controller like
{
a: “test”,
B: {{ Name : “test”,Surname : “testing”}}
Etc.
You typically serialize json by using a serialization library, for example System.Text.Json.
To serialize a list, just create a list or array of your objects, and give it to the library for serialization
public record MyClass(int Age, string Name)
...
var list = new List<MyClass>(){new (50, "Bilbo"), new (2931 , "Legolas") };
var json = JsonSerializer.Serialize(list);
Resulting in:
[
{"Age":50,"Name":"Bilbo"},
{"Age":2931 ,"Name":"Legolas"}
]
I.e. an Json array of objects.
I'm not sure what your example is supposed to be, or how you created it, but it does not look like json.
B? From your first example, it looks like a List of objects? which would be something likeB: [{"Name": "test", "Surname": "testing"}]. But what do you mean by "how do I serialize"? You don't do it manually, do you?
