Hi Folks,

I am trying to retrieve an IList of an object containg an image and a url.  The image is a contentreference, with the Image url hint.  When trying to retrieve this through the content delivery api I am just getting a string value back

The IList is a list of this object

public class SocialMediaLink
{
    [Display(Name = "Social Link Icon", Order = 10)]
    [UIHint(UIHint.Image)]
    public virtual ContentReference SocialLinkIcon { get; set; }

    [Display(Name = "Social Link Url", Order = 20)]
    [JsonConverter(typeof(UrlConverter))]
    public virtual Url SocialLinkUrl { get; set; }
}

Property is like this

    [Display(Name = "Social Media Links", Order = 40, GroupName = TabNames.Footer)]
    [EditorDescriptor(EditorDescriptorType = typeof(CollectionEditorDescriptor<SocialMediaLink>))]
    public virtual IList<SocialMediaLink> FooterListOfSocialLinkProperty { get; set; }

I have a property model 

public class SocialMediaLinkPropertyModel : PropertyModel<IList<SocialMediaLink>, SocialMediaLinkProperty>
{
    public SocialMediaLinkPropertyModel(SocialMediaLinkProperty type) : base(type)
    {
        base.Value = type.List;
    }
}

and a property list

[PropertyDefinitionTypePlugIn]
public class SocialMediaLinkProperty : PropertyList<SocialMediaLink>
{

}

When I call the page in the api this is all I get.

"footerListOfSocialLinkProperty": [
            {
                "socialLinkIcon": "12__dam",
                "socialLinkUrl": "/link/06f9d82e23b9496487c7613e138ce957.aspx"
            },
            {
                "socialLinkIcon": "12__dam",
                "socialLinkUrl": "/link/06f9d82e23b9496487c7613e138ce957.aspx"
            },
            {
                "socialLinkIcon": "4__dam",
                "socialLinkUrl": "/link/06f9d82e23b9496487c7613e138ce957.aspx"
            }
        ],

I have a single contentreference as a property on the page which is set up the same way, but works perfectly

"footerSiteLogo": {
            "id": 3,
            "workId": 0,
            "guidValue": "027606ae-5a89-4f1e-bd53-0e7b604a905e",
            "providerName": "dam",
            "url": "https://images2.cmp.optimizely.com/assets/logo.png",
            "expanded": {
                "contentLink": {
                    "id": 3,
                    "workId": 0,
                    "guidValue": "027606ae-5a89-4f1e-bd53-0e7b604a905e",
                    "providerName": "dam",
                    "url": "https://images2.cmp.optimizely.com/assets/logo.png",
                    "expanded": null
                },
                "name": "Logo_BLACK.png",
                "language": {
                    "link": "https://images2.cmp.optimizely.com/assets/logo.png",
                    "displayName": "Invariant Language (Invariant Country)",
                    "name": ""
                },
                "existingLanguages": [],
                "masterLanguage": null,
                "contentType": [
                    "Image",
                    "Media",
                    "DAMImageAsset"
                ],
                "parentLink": null,
                "routeSegment": "logo_black.png",
                "url": "https://images2.cmp.optimizely.com/assets/logo.png",
                "changed": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
                "created": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
                "startPublish": "2024-07-17T23:00:00Z",
                "stopPublish": null,
                "saved": "2024-07-17T23:00:00Z",
                "status": "Published",
                "category": [],
                "thumbnail": null,
                "mimeType": "image/png"
            }
        },

[UIHint(UIHint.Image)]
[Display(Name = "Footer Site Logo", Order = 30, GroupName = TabNames.Footer)]
public virtual ContentReference FooterSiteLogo { get; set; }

Anyone any idea?
