asp.net mvc - How do I write unencoded Json to my View using Razor?

Question

I'm trying to write an object as JSON to my Asp.Net MVC View using Razor, like so:

<script type="text/javascript">
  var potentialAttendees = @Json.Encode(Model.PotentialAttendees);
</script>

The problem is that in the output the JSON is encoded, and my browser doesn't like it. For example:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var potentialAttendees = [{&quot;Name&quot;:&quot;Samuel Jack&quot;},];
</script>

How do I get Razor to emit unencoded JSON?

Answer 1

You do:

@Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model.PotentialAttendees))

In releases earlier than Beta 2 you did it like:

@(new HtmlString(Json.Encode(Model.PotentialAttendees)))
