how to send object from jquery to aspnet webapi controller?

Question

I tried to send object as json to controller in post method but it's raise error. what's to do?(attatched this relvant code):

    public class user
    {
        public string username;
        public string password;
    }
    // POST: api/User
    public void Post(user u)
    {
        if (!database_layer.create_user(u.username, u.password))
        { throw new HttpResponseException(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest); }
    }

We also need to see your JS code which sends the request too, please — Rory McCrossan, Feb 28 '18 at 11:55
You probably want `Post([FromBody]user u)` but it will depend very much on how you're making the call and what the error is. — freedomn-m, Feb 28 '18 at 11:56

If your data is to be send as JSON you need to serialize it before it is send. Replace data:user with

data: JSON.stringify(user)
