ODataEnumJsonFormat - EasyAF.AI

Definition

Assembly: Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.dll Namespace: Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Catalog Inheritance: System.Enum

Syntax

Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Catalog.ODataEnumJsonFormat

Summary

Controls how enumeration values are advertised in JSON Schema and accepted on input.

Remarks

The EDM underlying type of an enumeration is always integral. That describes storage, not the JSON wire. The advertised schema is fixed for the lifetime of a catalog; observing a numeric value on a GET never rewrites what tools/list already returned.

Values

Name	Value	Description
`Auto`	0	Advertise member names, the same as , but also accept a JSON number on input.
`String`	1	Advertise and accept member names such as “Red” or the OData literal NS.Color’Red’.
`Integer`	2	Advertise integral member values and accept a JSON number or numeric string.
