Passing JSON to MVC Controller?

rated 0 times [ 160] [ 2] / answers: 1 / hits: 25393 / 8 Years ago, tue, january 3, 2017, 12:00:00

I have a JSON object with nested arrays which I would like to send to a controller.

This is my jQuery.ajax call:

$.ajax({

            url: @Url.Action(ExportJson),

            type: POST,

            data: JSON.stringify(myObj),

            contentType:application/json,

            success: function (result) {



            }

        });

Controller:

public ActionResult ExportJson(string json)

            {







                return null;

            }

Why is the json string coming back as null in the controller? Whereas console.log(JSON.stringify(myObj)) shows the correct object in browser console.

Change the ajax post like this;

$.ajax({

        url: @Url.Action(ExportJson),

        type: POST,

 //************************************

        data: {json : JSON.stringify(myObj)},

 //************************************

        contentType:application/json,

        success: function (result) {



        }

    });
