Iam sending the json data through ajax...

    var JSONobj = {
        Group: "FisrtGroup", Employees: [
    { EmpId: "1", FullName: "Doe" },
    { EmpId: "4", FullName: "Jones" }]
    };

when iam sending the request.. its sending data like this...

Group: "FirstGroup"
Employees[0][EmpId] : "1"
Employees[0][FullName] : "Doe"
Employees[1][EmpId] : "2"
Employees[1][FullName] : "Jones"

which not able to bind employees data on ASP.NET MVC Model 
Hence I need to send like this using the dot notation not indexed based..

Group: "FirstGroup"
Employees[0].EmpId : "1"
Employees[0].FullName : "Doe"
Employees[1].EmpId : "2"
Employees[1].FullName : "Jones"

This structure is auto binded to Models in asp.net mvc

What I have tried:

I have tried to send the the data using the object containing the collection of objects(employee) but nothing helped..any suggestions.

Can you post your code here

Try with double quotes for fields.
var JSONobj = {
"Group": "FisrtGroup", "Employees": [
{ "EmpId": "1", "FullName": "Doe" },
{ "EmpId": "4", "FullName": "Jones" }]
};

For numbers, you can ignore the quotes in "1" and "4"

I believe this is the solution. JSON is not equal to javascript object. The difference being: properties have to be in quotes too.

Solution 1

Make a class.

Public Class JSONobj
{
public string Group{get;set;}
public List<employees> {get;set;}//List of Employees class
}

Then pass this class object as argument in your WebMethod.

Try with double quotes for fields.

JavaScript

var JSONobj = {
"Group": "FisrtGroup", "Employees": [
{ "EmpId": "1", "FullName": "Doe" },
{ "EmpId": "4", "FullName": "Jones" }]
};

For numbers, you can ignore the quotes in "1" and "4"
