Challenge 1 / 1

Suppose you created a new format - called dino_json - which is like JSON, except that, for each resource in the response, you add a dinosaur key set to the dinosaur you feel most represents that resource.

To set this up, you add the following to your config:

# config/packages/api_platform.yaml
api_platform:
    formats:
        jsonld: [ 'application/ld+json' ]
        json: [ 'application/json' ]
        html: [ 'text/html' ]
        dino_json: [ 'application/dino+json' ]

Would this work? If not, what is missing?

No. This will add the format, but when the serializer is asked to serialize into the dino_json format, it won't understand that.

Yes! Just like with jsonhal in the tutorial, this will add the new format.

No. This will add the format, but API Platform won't know how to turn the JSON into this new type of JSON.
