how to post web api frombody parameter together with simple

If you want to send this ID parameter from body then create a new model and create two properties one for Id and second for EmployeeModel like ;

 

   public class CombinedModel 

     {

      public int Id { get; set; }             

      public EmployeeModel EmployeeModel { get; set; } 

     }

 

 

 

 

 

public void Put([FromBody]JToken combinedModel) 

 {

//Here you have your model with Id and employeeObject in it 

  CombinedModel model = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<CombinedModel>(combinedModel.ToString());

}

i have already tried by passing the id parameter in URL along with formated string for class object it was worked. how can we pass the id parameter as post parameter rather than passing in the URl. what change do i need to do in API method. 

/* DO NOT FORMAT YOUR STRING AS INLINE PARAMETER STRING

string postString = string.Format("id=1007&EmployeeID={0}&EmployeeName={1}&EmployeeDept={2}&EmployeeEmail={3}&EmployeePhone={4}", 1007, "guna", "HR", "[email protected]", "9566764152");

*/

 

//Initilize your employee object here 

Employee employee= new Employee(); 

 

//Serialize object . I have written this using Newtonsoft JSON serializer 

string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(employee);

using (StreamWriter streamWriter = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream()))

{

streamWriter.Write(json);

}

// IMPORTANT PART THAT YOU HAVE SET ID AS URL PARAMETER & EMPLOYEE MODEL WILL BE POSTED FROM BODY

// THIS IS WHY AT THE END OF URL ADDING ID VALUE

request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:6267/api/employeevalue?id=1007");

request.Accept = "application/json";

request.Method = "PUT";

request.ContentType = "application/json";

StreamWriter requestWriter = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream());

requestWriter.Write(postString);

requestWriter.Close();

response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
