Currently, if you don't specify any Accept header you get a 406, and the following response body (application/json):
[
"application/json",
"application/marcxml+xml",
"application/marc-in-json",
"application/marc"
]
I followed what is described here on the Mozilla site [1]. Now that I re-read it they suggest the site usually just skips the error and returns a fallback (the default response). It then mentions if you want to return 406, give the consumer a list of accept-able mime types.
I am open to any change. Let's discuss it in more detail.

*** Bug 24238 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am all for returning application/json as default, as suggested by Jonathan in 24238. |
