Problem receiving data from API and assigning it to model

Question

I have a method that makes an asynchronous call to an API, the structure of the data that the API returns is identical to the model I want to assign. However it never loads the object. The data is always null, but if there is a response from the API and if it delivers the data, but does not assign it to the variable: podcast.

The purpose of this method is to pass the data to view. (I use .Net core 5 in a Web Project)

this is my method

        public async Task<IActionResult> details(int id)
    {
        if (id != 0)
        {
            //Read Service for config Metas 
            PPodcast podcast = new PPodcast();

            using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
            {
                using (var response = await httpClient.GetAsync($"{_storageOption.devVirtualPath}{_endpoints.ObtenerPodcast}" + id))
                {
                    string apiResponse = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
                    podcast = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<PPodcast>(apiResponse);
                }
            }
            ViewBag.idPodcast = id;
            return View(podcast);

        }
        return View(null);
    }

This is my model:

 public class PPodcast
{
    public int id { get; set; }
    public int idSeccion { get; set; }
    public string titulo { get; set; }
    public string descripcion { get; set; }
    public string contenido { get; set; }
    public string embeb { get; set; }
    public string imagenRef { get; set; }
    public string tags { get; set; }
    public string fecha_PE { get; set; }
    public DateTime Fecha { get; set; }
    public string Hora { get; set; }
    public string urlPodcast { get; set; }
    public string SeccionNombre { get; set; }
    
}

Answer 1

if all of your responses have the same shape, it is better to create a generic class that contains the classes you want

example:

public class Response<T> 
{
    public T Data {  get; set; }
    // additional items like errors and such
}

then in your deserilizer you would use it as such

podcast = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Response<PPodcast>>(apiResponse).Data;
