CodePudding user response：

You should the static method Guid.NewGuid() instead of calling the default constructor. This should work:

var ApplicationId = Guid.NewGuid();
var DistrictId = Guid.NewGuid();

CodePudding user response：

There is no GUID data type in JSON, so you can't use it directly.

Instead, you can use your parameter's datatype as 'string' in your model.

Then:

Solution 1

Optionally, you can define your parameters as string, then convert them into GUID in your method:

public class AuthenticateModel 
{
    //...
    public string ApplicationId { get; set; }

    public string DistrictId { get; set; }
    //...
}

In your method:

public SecurityToken AuthenticateUser(AuthenticateModel authenticateModel)
{
    var applicationId = Guid.Parse(authenticateModel.ApplicationId);
    var districtId = Guid.Parse(authenticateModel.DistrictId);
}

Solution 2:

You can create 2 new variables:

public class AuthenticateModel 
{
    public string ApplicationId { get; set; }

    public string DistrictId { get; set; }

    [JsonIgnore] //this is for Newtonsoft.Json
    [IgnoreDataMember] //this is for default JavaScriptSerializer class
    public Guid ApplicationGuid { get => Guid.Parse(ApplicationId); set => ApplicationId = value.ToString(); }

    [JsonIgnore] //this is for Newtonsoft.Json
    [IgnoreDataMember] //this is for default JavaScriptSerializer class
    public Guid DistrictGuid { get => Guid.Parse(DistrictId); set => DistrictId = value.ToString(); }
}

and then use it in your method:

public SecurityToken AuthenticateUser(AuthenticateModel authenticateModel)
{
    //...
    doSomething(authenticateModel.ApplicationGuid);
    doSomething(authenticateModel.DistrictGuid);
    //...
}

Hope it works for you.
