How to create JSON to match/serialize to DataContract in WCF Rest Service

Question

Interface:

namespace SQRT_WCF
    {
    [DataContract]
    public class PlaceOrder
    {
        [DataMember]
        public string claimID { get; set; }
            


        

Answer 1

I had a similar issue and turned out that I had to define my request format and body. Try this:

[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(Method = "POST", BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.WrappedRequest, RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
YourResultType placeOrder(PlaceOrder argPlaceOrderJSON);
