Why does HttpResponseMessage not show its content?
Hello i am trying to send a Json object using the HttpResponseMessage .
Even though while debugging the data looks like it was inserted in the Content section (104 bytes present) when using Postman when retrieveing the json , in the Content section there is no data,just a header.
JsonResponse
{
"version": {
"major": 1,
"minor": 1,
"build": -1,
"revision": -1,
"majorRevision": -1,
"minorRevision": -1
},
"content": {
"headers": [
{
"key": "Content-Type",
"value": [
"text/plain; charset=utf-8"
]
} ////why no data ??
]
},
"statusCode": 200,
"reasonPhrase": "OK",
"headers": ,
"requestMessage": null,
"isSuccessStatusCode": true
}
As you can see there is no content.I am reusing the same code as in an earlier application and i did not get this problem.Why is the content empty?
Code
private static List<User> users = new List<User> {
new User{ Id = 0, Age = 0, Name = "Failed"},
new User{ Id = 12, Age = 33, Name = "Daniel"},
new User{ Id = 13, Age = 33, Name = "Marian"},
};
[HttpGet]
[Route("/api/getusers")]
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> GetUsers() {
await Task.Delay(1000);
var str = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(users);
return new HttpResponseMessage {
StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK,
Content = new StringContent(str, Encoding.UTF8)
};
}

ASP.NET Core does not have built-in support for returning HttpResponseMessage. If you want to return JSON, you can use IActionResult and let ASP.NET Core handle the serialisation for you. Here's an updated example:
public async Task<IActionResult> GetUsers() {
await Task.Delay(1000);
return Json(users);
}
There are more options here, for situations where you want to allow content-negotiation, for example. Here's a version that supports content-negotiation using OkObjectResult:
public async Task<IActionResult> GetUsers() {
await Task.Delay(1000);
return Ok(users);
}
You can even just return users itself if you prefer:
public async Task<List<User>> GetUsers() {
await Task.Delay(1000);
return users;
}
That should be enough to get you started - the official documentation explains things further: Controller action return types in ASP.NET Core Web API.

If you mean a HTTPStatusCode, the approach I've shown will set it to 200 automatically. If you mean a customStatusCodethat's not HTTP-based, you will want to create your own wrapper class rather than usingHttpResponseMessage. If that's the case, let me know and I'll provide an updated example.
