Consume Odata Service and get result in JSON

Question

I am consuming odata service using DataServiceContext and want to return data in json format.

I am looking something like this: Odata Query with DataServiceContext

Answer 1

You can call context.Format.UseJson method without providing a parameter if you load your service model inside OnContextCreated partial method as shown in the code below:

public partial class DemoService
{
    partial void OnContextCreated()
    {
        this.Format.LoadServiceModel = GeneratedEdmModel.GetInstance;
    }
}
