Swagger and Enums in C#
September 8, 2016
By default, if you expose a service that has an Enum as a parameter, Swashbuckle will expose it using the index numbers of the enum in a dropdown. So in my case, given:
public enum TimeBasis { REALTIME, SLOW, FAST }
I got a droplist with 0, 1 and 2 in it. Not useful.
You can configure Swagger/Swashbuckle to use the string names instead. In SwaggerConfig.cs, uncomment c.DescribeAllEnumsAsStrings();
I now get a droplist that contains REALTIME, SLOW and FAST.
