How to use data annotations in c# web api?

Question

C++ / C#

Good afternoon! in MVC, you can control the visibility of fields using attributes from the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations space. How can you do the same with asp .net web api?

Answer 1

Alternatively, you can mark the class as [DataContract], set the DataMember to the required fields, and do not mark the fields that should be invisible (well, or for clarity, mark IgnoreDataMember)

Answer 2

So write your own logic to handle this type of attributes.
