Re: Fwd: Json having escape characters(\)

Hi Peter/Nadir

Thank you for your email. I am trying to set up the webservices to return
response in JSON format only.

This can be done by putting http header as application /json or setting the
output media as JSON only. I have tried both scenarios.

Please find the document attached.

Thank you !

When you say "If I set the allow output media to (Json and XML)", do you
mean when you deploy the webserver?

If yes, then the client controls which format the response is in by
sending an http header of

Accept:application/json
or Accept:application/xml
