Answer 1

I am using Dot.Net Core 3.1 and did an search for

"Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Self referencing loop detected for property "

I am adding this to this question, as it will be an easy reference. You should use the following in the Startup.cs file:

 services.AddControllers()
                .AddNewtonsoftJson(options =>
                {
                    // Use the default property (Pascal) casing
                    options.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver = new CamelCasePropertyNamesContractResolver();
                    options.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;
                });
