xml - Web Api Post value is always null when using Chrome Postman Plugin -


i'm following example here http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/creating-web-apis/creating-a-web-api-that-supports-crud-operations i'm having trouble getting receive post request chrome postman plugin.

here's example of xml i'm posting. have set content-type header in postman application/xml.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <product>   <category>groceries</category>   <name>new post</name>   <price>1.39</price> </product> 

i have tried following solution model null on xml post doesn't seem make difference. here's webapiconfig file.

public static void register(httpconfiguration config)         {              config.formatters.add(new xmlmediatypeformatter());             config.formatters.xmlformatter.usexmlserializer = true;              config.routes.maphttproute(                 name: "defaultapi",                 routetemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",                 defaults: new { id = routeparameter.optional }             );         } 

i'm hitting right end point , can see when debug item null.

public httpresponsemessage postproduct(product item)         {             item = repository.add(item);             var response = request.createresponse(httpstatuscode.created, item);              string uri = url.link("defaultapi", new { id = item.id });             response.headers.location = new uri(uri);             return response;         } 

any ideas?

edit: seems work ok when post same values json. need able test xml though.

apply datacontract so, dto class.

[datacontract(namespace="")] public class product {     public int id { get; set; }     public string name { get; set; }     public string category { get; set; }     public decimal price { get; set; } } 

alternatively, send right namespace info.
