Complex type is getting null in a ApiController parameter

You are trying to send a complex object with GET method. The reason this is failing is that GET method can't have a body and all the values are being encoded into the URL. You can make this work by using [FromUri], but first you need to change your client side code:

$.ajax({    url: fullUrl,    type: 'GET',    dataType: 'json',    data: { Codigo: '_1', Descricao: 'TESTE', page: 1, pageSize: 10 },    success: function (result) {        alert(result.Data.length);        self.Parametros(result.Data);    }});

This way [FromUri] will be able to pick up your complex object properties directly from the URL if you change your action method like this:

public PagedDataModel<ParametroDTO> Get([FromUri]ParametroFiltro Filtro, int page, int pageSize)

Your previous approach would rather work with POST method which can have a body (but you would still need to use JSON.stringify() to format body as JSON).

Provide the contentType property when you make the ajax call. Use JSON.stringify method to build the JSON data to post. change the type to POST and MVC Model binding will bind the posted data to your class object.

var filter = { "Filtro": { "Codigo": "_1", "Descricao": "TESTE" },                                                "page": "1", "pageSize": "10" }; $.ajax({    url: fullUrl,    type: 'POST',    dataType: 'json',    contentType: 'application/json',    data: JSON.stringify(filter),    success: function (result) {        alert(result.Data.length);        self.Parametros(result.Data);    }});

It's also possible to access POST variables via a Newtonsoft.Json.Linq JObject.

For example, this POST:

$.ajax({    type: 'POST',    url: 'URL',    data: { 'Note': note, 'Story': story },    dataType: 'text',    success: function (data) { }});

Can be accessed in an APIController like so:

public void Update([FromBody]JObject data){    var Note = (String)data["Note"];    var Story = (String)data["Story"];}
