How to output Json string as JsonResult in MVC4?

Question

This seems so simple I must be over-thinking it.

TL;DR;

How can I modify the code below to return the json object contained in the string

Answer 1

The whole point of the Json() helper method is to serialize as JSON.

If you want to return raw content, do that directly:

return Content(jsonString, "application/json");

Answer 2

public ActionResult Test()
{
  return Json(new { success = true }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
