ASP.NET Core 3.1

To generate enums as strings using Newtonsoft JSON you must explicitly add Newtonsoft support by adding AddSwaggerGenNewtonsoftSupport() as follows:

services.AddMvc()
    ...
    .AddNewtonsoftJson(opts =>
    {
        opts.SerializerSettings.Converters.Add(new StringEnumConverter());
    });


services.AddSwaggerGen(...);
services.AddSwaggerGenNewtonsoftSupport(); //

This is available via a new package, Swashbuckle.AspNetCore.Newtonsoft. It looks like everything else works fine without this package apart from enum converter support.
