Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| .jpeg) .gif) | DefaultMediaType | Gets the default media type for JSON, namely "application/json". | 
| .jpeg) | Indent | Gets or sets a value indicating whether to indent elements when writing data. | 
| .jpeg) | MaxDepth | Gets or sets the maximum depth allowed by this formatter. | 
| .jpeg) | MediaTypeMappings | Gets the mutable collection of MediaTypeMapping objects that match HTTP requests to media types. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | RequiredMemberSelector | Gets or sets the IRequiredMemberSelector instance used to determine required members. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | SerializerSettings | Gets or sets the JsonSerializerSettings used to configure the JsonSerializer. | 
| .jpeg) | SupportedEncodings | Gets the mutable collection of character encodings supported bythis MediaTypeFormatter. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | SupportedMediaTypes | Gets the mutable collection of media types supported bythis MediaTypeFormatter. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | UseDataContractJsonSerializer | Gets or sets a value indicating whether to use DataContractJsonSerializer by default. |

Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| .jpeg) | CanReadType | Determines whether this JsonMediaTypeFormatter can read objects of the specified type. (Overrides MediaTypeFormatter.CanReadType(Type).) | 
| .jpeg) | CanWriteType | Determines whether this JsonMediaTypeFormatter can write objects of the specified type. (Overrides MediaTypeFormatter.CanWriteType(Type).) | 
| .jpeg) | CreateDefaultSerializerSettings | Creates a JsonSerializerSettings instance with the default settings used by the JsonMediaTypeFormatter. | 
| .jpeg) | Equals | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | Finalize | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | GetHashCode | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | GetPerRequestFormatterInstance | Returns a specialized instance of the MediaTypeFormatter that can format a response for the given parameters. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | GetType | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | MemberwiseClone | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | ReadFromStreamAsync | Reads an object of the specified type from the specified stream. This method is called during deserialization. (Overrides MediaTypeFormatter.ReadFromStreamAsync(Type, Stream, HttpContent, IFormatterLogger).) | 
| .jpeg) | SelectCharacterEncoding | Determines the best character encoding for reading or writing an HTTP entity body, given a set of content headers. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | SetDefaultContentHeaders | Sets the default headers for content that will be formatted using this formatter. This method is called from the ObjectContent constructor. This implementation sets the Content-Type header to the value of mediaType if it is not null. If it is null it sets the Content-Type to the default media type of this formatter. If the Content-Type does not specify a charset it will set it using this formatters configured Encoding. (Inherited from MediaTypeFormatter.) | 
| .jpeg) | ToString | (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .jpeg) | WriteToStreamAsync | Writes an object of the specified type to the specified stream. This method is called during serialization. (Overrides MediaTypeFormatter.WriteToStreamAsync(Type, Object, Stream, HttpContent, TransportContext).) |

| .gif) | AddQueryStringMapping(String, String, String) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris containing a specific query parameter and value. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | 
| .gif) | AddRequestHeaderMapping(String, String, StringComparison, Boolean, MediaTypeHeaderValue) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with a specific HTTP request header field with a specific value.

(Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | 
| .gif) | AddUriPathExtensionMapping(String, MediaTypeHeaderValue) | Overloaded. Updates the given formatter's set of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris ending with the given uriPathExtension. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | 
| .gif) | AddUriPathExtensionMapping(String, String) | Overloaded. Updates the given formatter's set of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris ending with the given uriPathExtension. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) |
