Change default format for DateTime parsing in ASP.NET Core

Question

I get a Date in an ASP.NET Core Controller like this:

public class MyController:Controller{
    public IActionResult Test(DateTime date) {

    }
}

Answer 1

I wanted to format the dates in my responses and I did the following in ConfigureServices method:

services.AddMvc()
.AddJsonOptions(options =>
{
    options.SerializerSettings.DateFormatString = "mm/dd/yy, ffffdd";
});

Hope that helps.
