Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies

Adding binding redirect configuration for Newtonsoft.Json in your configuration file (web.config) will resolve the issue.

Since Newtonsoft.Json version in your case is 9 update the version appropriatly in the configuration.

If this configuration does not work make sure the namespace (xmlns) in your configuration tag is correct or remove the name space completely.

Assembly binding redirect does not work
