Answer 1

Note the original method Post([FromBody] User newUser)

For future readers from google, this same issue could arise if the method was Post(User newUser)

Note the lack of [FromBody]. This is a departure from previous versions of MVC where these parameters were generally inferred.

If you're an existing MVC5 developer who finds this page regarding AspNetCore.MVC, make sure to double check that you have [FromBody] decorated where relevant.
