First you check your which properties are you passing from the api controller?

And You can try this type code in api controller:

/// <summary>
/// This method for Get All employee .
/// </summary>
[HttpGet]
[Route("GetEmployee")]
public HttpResponseMessage GetEmployee()
{
    try
    {
        ////get employee.
        var employeeCollection = employeeService.GetEmployee().ToList();
        ////check object
        if (employeeCollection.Count > 0 && employeeCollection != null)
        {
            ////dynamic list.
            dynamic employees = new List<ExpandoObject>();
            ////bind dynamic property.

            ////return response from employee service.
            foreach (var employeeDetail in employeeCollection)
            {
                ////bind dynamic property.
                dynamic employee = new ExpandoObject();

                ////map ids
                employee.ID = employeeDetail.ID;
                employee.GroupCode = employeeDetail.GroupCode;
                employee.AddAsMember = employeeDetail.AddAsMember;
                employee.IsPrimaryGroup = employeeDetail.IsPrimaryGroup;
                employee.AddAsGroupAdmin = employeeDetail.AddAsGroupAdmin;
                employee.AddGroupRepTitle = employeeDetail.AddGroupRepTitle;
                ////set customers values in list.
                employees.Add(employee);
                ////return customers service
                return this.Request.CreateResponse<List<ExpandoObject>>(HttpStatusCode.OK, (List<ExpandoObject>)employees);

            }
        }
        else
        {
            ////case of record not found.
            return this.Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.NotFound);
        }


    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        //// handel exception log.
        Console.Write(ex.Message);

        ////return case of exception.
        return this.Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, new { Message = "Exception : " + ex.Message });
    }
}

hope it's useful for you...
