When loading a list of entities in ASP.NET core 3.1. Have got an exception JsonException: A possible object cycle was detected which is not supported. This can either be due to a cycle or if the object depth is larger than the maximum allowed depth of 32.
I want to show a part of my project related to this issue bellow
Entity Model and DbContext :
public class Category
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public virtual IEnumerable<Product> Products { get; set; }
}
public class Product
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public virtual Category Category { get; set; }
}
public class MyDbContext : DbContext
{
public MyDbContext(DbContextOptions<MyDbContext> options) : base(options)
{
}
public DbSet<Category> Categories { get; set; }
public DbSet<Product> Products { get; set; }
}
Here is Controller
public async Task<ActionResult<IEnumerable<Product>>> GetProducts()
{
return await _context.Products.Include(t=>t.Category).ToListAsync();
}
Have 1 answer(s) found.

I got the same issue. So, this is one solution for you
Firstly, Add Nuget package Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson to parsing json instead of use default parsing.
Afterthat, use AddNewtonsoftJson right after AddController (ControllerWithViews,Mvc also) in Startup.cs
services.AddControllers().AddNewtonsoftJson(options => { options.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore; });I hope it helps you resolve this issue
