c# - Swagger UI Web Api documentation Present enums as strings? -

is there way display enums string value in swagger instead of int value?

i want able submit post actions , put enums according string value without having @ enum every time.

i tried describeallenumsasstrings server receives strings instead of enum value not we're looking for.

has solved this?

edit:

public class letter  {     [required]     public string content {get; set;}      [required]     [enumdatatype(typeof(priority))]     public priority priority {get; set;} }   public class letterscontroller : apicontroller {     [httppost]     public ihttpactionresult sendletter(letter letter)     {         // validation not passing when using describeenumsasstrings         if (!modelstate.isvalid)             return badrequest("not valid")          ..     }      // in documentation request want see string values of enum before submitting: low, medium, high. instead of 0, 1, 2     [httpget]     public ihttpactionresult getbypriority (priority priority)     {      } }   public enum priority {     low,      medium,     high } 

from the docs:

httpconfiguration     .enableswagger(c =>          {             c.singleapiversion("v1", "a title api");              c.describeallenumsasstrings(); // trick         }); 

also, if want behavior on particular type , property, use stringenumconverter:

public class letter  {     [required]     public string content {get; set;}      [required]     [enumdatatype(typeof(priority))]     [jsonconverter(typeof(stringenumconverter))]     public priority priority {get; set;} }
