JsonSerializationException when configuring Jenkins server
When I tried to connect CatLight to my Jenkins server, I got this error in the log:
2016-11-23 15:11:09.5762 | WARN | Asp.Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics.DeveloperExceptionPageMiddleware | 36 | Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.EventId An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException: Cannot deserialize the current JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) into type 'Web.Services.Jenkins.Entities.JenkinsBuildActionDto' because the type requires a JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) to deserialize correctly.
To fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON object (e.g. {"name":"value"}) or change the deserialized type to an array or a type that implements a collection interface (e.g. ICollection, IList) like List<T> that can be deserialized from a JSON array. JsonArrayAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON array.

I intercepted the JSON that came down and the offending bit looks like this:
