I am making an AJAX POST request to an MVC controller, yet the data is coming through as null
. I'm not sure why.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#btnSaveCustomer").click(function() {
debugger;
var data = {
_DcLink: "1",
_Account: "Test",
_Name: "TestName",
_Title: "Mr",
_Init: "T"
}
$.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '/Customer/SaveCustomer',
data: JSON.stringify(data),
success: function() {
debugger;
console.log(data)
alert("Success")
},
error: function() {
alert("Error")
}
});
})
public ActionResult SaveCustomer(string data)
{
using (var ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF32.GetBytes(data)))
{
// Deserialization from JSON
DataContractJsonSerializer deserializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(Customer));
Customer serializeddata = (Customer)deserializer.ReadObject(ms);
}
return Json(new { Success = true });
}
No matter how I try to serialize the data it is always null
. I believe the AJAX POST method is not executing properly
I am using dummy data in order to resolve the problem.
The code hits a breakpoint at MemoryStream
in the controller - stating data is null
.
System.ArgumentNullException: 'String reference not set to an instance of a String. Parameter name: s'
Any help appreciated
