How do you set katana-project to allow token requests in json format?

When I setup an OAuth Authorization Server in asp.net webapi 2 how can I set the token endpoint to accept json rather then a form encoded post?

Using the sample http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/security/individual-accounts-in-web-api

I tried to send application/json with

{
"grant_type":"password",
"username":"Alice",
"password":"password123"
}

I receive the response 400 Bad Request

{
  "error" : "unsupported_grant_type"
}

where as a content type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded and body of grant_type=password&username=Alice&password=password123 works as expected.

200 OK

Based on the current implementation of OAuthAuthorizationServerHandler you cannot.

private async Task InvokeTokenEndpointAsync()
{
     DateTimeOffset currentUtc = Options.SystemClock.UtcNow;
     // remove milliseconds in case they don't round-trip
     currentUtc = currentUtc.Subtract(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(currentUtc.Millisecond));

     IFormCollection form = await Request.ReadFormAsync();
     var clientContext = new OAuthValidateClientAuthenticationContext(
                Context,
                Options,
                form);

     await Options.Provider.ValidateClientAuthentication(clientContext);

     if (!clientContext.IsValidated)
     {
          _logger.WriteError("clientID is not valid.");
          if (!clientContext.HasError)
          {
               clientContext.SetError(Constants.Errors.InvalidClient);
          }
          await SendErrorAsJsonAsync(clientContext);
          return;
      }

      var tokenEndpointRequest = new TokenEndpointRequest(form);
}

So in order to attempt this you will need to provide your own implementation of OAuthAuthorizationServerMiddleware that overloads CreateHandler so you can provide your own implementation of AuthenticationHandler<OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions>
