GZIP in .net core not working

Question

I\'m attempting to add Gzip middleware to my ASP.net core app.

I have added the following package :

\"Microsoft.AspNetCore.ResponseCompression\"

Answer 1

Solved it by putting

app.UseResponseCompression();

before

app.UseMvc();

in Startup.Configure, i.e:

    public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
    {
        if (env.IsDevelopment())
        {
            app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
        }
        else
        {
            app.UseHsts();
        }

        app.UseResponseCompression(); // <--
        app.UseHttpsRedirection();
        app.UseMvc(); // <--
    }
