ISO UTC DateTime format as default json output format in MVC 6 API response

Question

Does anyone know how to configure MVC6's json output to default to a ISO UTC DateTime string format when returning DateTime objects?

In WebApi2 I could set the JsonFormatter SerializerSettings and convert datetimes however i'm a bit stuck with how to do this in MVC6

Answer 1

And I just stumbled onto something that helped me figure it out.

Just in case anyone wants to know

In your Startup.ConfigureServices

services.AddMvc().AddJsonOptions(options =>
                {
                    options.SerializerSettings.DateTimeZoneHandling = DateTimeZoneHandling.Utc;
                });
