Newtonsoft.Json.Jsonreaderexception When making a POST

Question

I’m having trouble doing the post in my API my app up to register the object but then it locks the application and closes with this error of execution:

Newtonsoft.Json.Jsonreaderexception: Unexpected Character encountered while Parsing value: {. Path '', line 1, position 1.

   public async Task<int> AddFrutas(Fruta fruta)
            {
                HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
                var data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(fruta);
                var content = new StringContent(data, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
                var response = await client.PostAsync("http://nivelamento.gopagoda.io/api/frutas", content);

                var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<int>(response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result);
                return result;

            }

Answer 1

The problem was time to Deserialize the object, I switched to Dynamic and solved my problem.

public async Task<dynamic> AddFrutas(Fruta fruta)
{
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    var data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(fruta);
    var content = new StringContent(data, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");

    var response = await client.PostAsync("http://nivelamento.gopagoda.io/api/frutas", content);

    var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<dynamic>(response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result);
    return result;

}
