Binding Custom Object From Header Asp.Net Core WebApi

Question

How do i bind an object from header. Am using the [FromHeader(Name = "Custom-Object")] but it seems to only be able to bind strings and sting arrays. Do i need to write custom binding or am i missing something here? I wonder why fromheader cannot bind complex object like frombody?

Answer 1

Write custom binder by using IModelBinder and IModelBinderProvider that should resolve your problem.
