[Question/Bug] EmptyBodyBehavior.Allow behavior #30690
Description
Describe the bug
We have API (migrating from old asp.net mvc) with optional request body which gives us 400 response when no body provided (content-length: 0 + content-type: application/json).
I've tried to use EmptyBodyBehavior.Allow feature but it still gives me 400 response so I suspect there is a difference between my understanding of empty body and one asp.net core has.
[HttpPost]
public async IActionResult Action([FromBody(EmptyBodyBehavior = EmptyBodyBehavior.Allow)] Request request)
{
return NoContent();
}
public class Request
{
public bool? Flag { get; set; }
}Could you please clarify requrements for empty body in context of EmptyBodyBehavior.Allow in documentation or fix it if it is a bug.
