This is just a quick post about json compression and IIS 7.5. I always find myself repeating the same process when I have to configure a new server and finding the same issue with json compression. That’s why I’ve thought that it could be a good idea to write it down and share this with all of you.
Basically, you have two options:
- Follow this great article
- Go directly to the point:
- Go to C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config
- Open applicationHost.config file
- Find httpCompression node and then dynamictypes node into it
- Add this: <add mimeType=”application/json; charset=utf-8″ enabled=”true” />
- Recycle the application pool
You’re done!
