web-api POST body object always null

Question

I\'m still learning web API, so pardon me if my question sounds stupid.

I have this in my StudentController:

public HttpResponseMessage

I was looking for a solution to my problem for some minutes now, so I'll share my solution.

When you have a custom constructor within your model, your model also needs to have an empty/default constructor. Otherwise the model can't be created, obviously. Be careful while refactoring.
