I am able to generate a proxy (using VS 2017) via the Microsoft OData Connector Service Nuget. This generates the proxy just fine.
However, when i try to send a entity over the wire to the client side, i get a deserialization exception. Is there any technical issues using service reference/proxy generated entities/data-models?
Below is the exception i was able to capture when the payload is retrieved from my Web API to the client.

Resolved
Was able to resolve this by using Henk's suggestion of serializing using Newstonsoft.Json.
