Question

I am working on asp.net mvc webapi with EF code first with existing database. I have a class like,

public class User
{
public bool IsAgree{get; set;}
}

Iam using MySql database, my table looks like.

--------------
|ID  |IsAgree|
--------------
|int  |tinyint|
--------------

and i have a post action like

public HttpReponseMessage PostUser(HttpRequestMessage request,User user)
{
// some code to handle user data..
}

and from my view i am trying to post some data to the action like,

$(document).ready(function () {
            var sendata = {"IsAgree":true};
            $.ajax({
                url: '/api/account',
                type: 'POST',
                data: sendata,
                dataType: "json",
                contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                cache: false,
                success: function (data) {
                    alert(data.status);
                },
                error: function (xhr) { alert(xhr.status); }
            });
        });

when i put breakpoint at action it shows user as null and i get alert message as 400 i.e. bad request. Is my json data was well for my model? Please guide me.

Try to send the data in this way :

data: JSON.stringify({ sendata })
