HttpClient PutAsync doesn't send a parameter to api

Question

On the controller Put is as following:

[HttpPut]
[ActionName(\"putname\")]
public JsonResult putname(string name)
{
    var response = ...
    return Json(re         


        

Answer 1

Here is what works for me:

var jsonString = "{\"appid\":1,\"platformid\":1,\"rating\":3}";
var httpContent = new StringContent(jsonString, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");            
var message = await _client.PutAsync(MakeUri("App/Rate"), httpContent);
Assert.AreEqual(HttpStatusCode.NoContent, message.StatusCode);

and my action method:

public void PutRate(AppRating model)
{
   if (model == null)
      throw new HttpResponseException(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);

   if (ModelState.IsValid)
   {
     // ..
   }      
}

and the model

public class AppRating
{
    public int AppId { get; set; }
    public int PlatformId { get; set; }
    public decimal Rating { get; set; }
}
