If you work with a .NET backend that uses JSON.NET for serialization, you might encounter such weird things in the JSON result returned from a controller:
![JSON result from ASP.NET controller with $ref: "1" instead of a real object. Example of JSON.NET circular references](https://blog.yumasoft.pl/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/1_CircularReferenceExample.png)
But what you actually want is the real object present there:
![JSON result from ASP.NET controller with $ref: "1" replaced with a real object's content](https://blog.yumasoft.pl/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/3_CurcularReferencesRemoved-1.png)
After reading this article, you will know how to achieve that ?
