Hi,

I have setup MVC web api application and was testing post method.
The parameter passed via postman is not captured in web api method.

[HttpPost]
        public IHttpActionResult Post([FromBody] string filterName)
        {
            return new JsonResult<string>(filterName, new JsonSerializerSettings(), Encoding.UTF8, this);
        }

Select allOpen in new window

What is wrong in passing the data.

Postman:

Value in .Net while debugging:

namespace webapitestweb.Controllers
{
    public class ValuesController : ApiController
    {
        // GET api/values
        public IEnumerable<string> Get()
        {
            return new string[] { "value1", "value2" };
        }

        // GET api/values/5
        public string Get(int id)
        {
            return "value";
        }

        

        [HttpPost] 
        public IHttpActionResult Post([FromBody] string filterName) 
        {
            return new JsonResult<string>(filterName, new JsonSerializerSettings(), Encoding.UTF8, this);
        }

        // PUT api/values/5
        public void Put(int id, [FromBody] string value)
        {
        }

        // DELETE api/values/5
        public void Delete(int id)
        {
        }
    }
}

Please advise.
