Just one question Kudvenkat, in the CustomJsonFormatter constructor, do we give the exsisting MediaHeaderValue? I know we set a new content header value in SetDefualtContentHeaders.

if your having problem inheriting from JsonMediaTypeFormatter be sure you have the using System.Net.Http.Formatting;
if you dont you should include this

... I watched all parts, except this one, anyway... I just don't get it, do I actually have to do something with Telerik Fiddler or do you just show example of how it works? I don't follow this tutorial but I think I am going to when it's finished/has more parts to watch, where you actually give at least basic examples of how to do that in code (PUT, GET, DELETE etc), unless I am missing something.

Though I understand everything else and now I somewhat understand how basics of HTTP work, it's funny how it is everything what I already kinda knew about client-server, since before I made simple project which allows for people around the world to draw on the same canvas.(don't google it, I didn't ever release it or share with more than few people, though it worked from anywhere, with almost no delay)

[dgloria]

somehow I can simply connect to API in Postman, but can't in Fiddler. Weird...
