JsonConvert.SerializeObject is returning back slashes

Question

I'm developing an ASPNetCore WebApi. In the get method I'm using Newtonsoft.Json and deserialize an generic object ( I'm not using a class model ) I get the response, works fine, but this have back slashes (in postman and in swagger)

[HttpGet]
[Route( "Obtener/{dwdocid:int}" )]
public IActionResult Obtener ( int dwdocid ) {

var dictionary = ( IDictionary<string, object> ) flexible; // for build the data
string json=null;

try {
    for ( int i = 1; i < item.Fields.Count - 1; i++ ) {
        // Taking data form another platform ( other system )*******
        // this platoform give us the data as strings
        // I make a diference between field and value for creating json response
        var field = item.Fields[i].FieldName.ToString();
        var value = item.Fields[i].Item == null ? "" : item.Fields[i].Item.ToString();
        dictionary.Add( field, value ); // building json
    }

} catch ( Exception error ) {

    return StatusCode( StatusCodes.Status500InternalServerError, new { mensaje = error.Message, response = JsonConvert.SerializeObject( dictionary ) } );
}
        

dk.desconectar( UriPlatform, dwUser, dwPass ); // diconnection
return StatusCode( StatusCodes.Status200OK, new { mensaje = "OK ;)", lista = JsonConvert.SerializeObject( dictionary ) } );
// return Json SerializeObject

}

I've converted te response in string for remove back slashes, but is not working.

How can I get a normal json response?? Please, I hope anyone can help me.

thanks.

The status code response is already serializing the response, and you're doing the extra serialization of the dictionary stored as lista. So lista ends up being a string. Try setting lista = dictionary directly so that only one serialization happens — emagers, Aug 25 '23 at 21:43
