C# API Return string instead of XML wrapped string

Question

I\'m using ApiController and I can\'t get the call to return anything other than XML.

public class GuideController : ApiController
{
    [AcceptVerbs(\"GET\")]

         


        

Answer 1

Try to return JSON explicitly.

[HttpGet]
public IHttpActionResult Get()
{
    Item item = Item.GetTestData();       
    return Json(item);
}
