Problem with mapping two objects (with lists) - asp.net-core

Question

I am looking for solution my issue... Probably my Shifts class cannot be mapped.
I have entity class Worker:
public class Worker
{
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
[MaxLength(50)]
public string Name { get; set; }
[Required]
[MaxLength(50)]
public string LastName { get; set; }
[MaxLength(200)]
public string PhotoFilePath { get; set; }
public Workplace Workplace { get; set; }
public int WorkplaceId { get; set; }
public List<Service> Services { get; set; }
public List<Shift> Shifts { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<Worker> ToList()
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
And model WorkerModel:
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
[DisplayName("Imię")]
public string Name { get; set; }
[DisplayName("Nazwisko")]
public string LastName { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Zdjęcie")]
public IFormFile Photo { get; set; }
public string PhotoFilePath { get; set; }
[Key]
[DatabaseGeneratedAttribute(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
public int WorkplaceId { get; set; }
public List<ServiceModel> Services { get; set; }
public List<ShiftModel> Shifts { get; set; }
}
My default mapper profile:
//Mapping workers
CreateMap<Worker, WorkerModel>();
CreateMap<WorkerModel, Worker>();
And when I try map model to entity class in my action:
Worker worker = _mapper.Map<Worker>(model);
I get an issue:
AutoMapperMappingException: Missing type map configuration or unsupported mapping.

This is caused by different mapping types. Take the property Service as an example.
The resource is a type of Service.
But the destination is a type of ServiceModel.
So, they need to be converted. Here is a demo.
I create the Service and ServiceModel according to your model.
public class Service
{
public int serviceID { get; set; }
public string myservice { get; set; }
}
public class ServiceModel
{
public int serviceID { get; set; }
public string myservice { get; set; }
}
This is mapping relationship.
public class AutomapProfile : Profile
{
public AutomapProfile()
{
CreateMap<Worker, WorkerModel>();
CreateMap<WorkerModel, Worker>()
.ForMember(m => m.Services, x => x.MapFrom(y => y.Services.Select(a=>
new Service
{
serviceID=a.serviceID,
myservice=a.myservice
})));
}
}
This is the mapping method.
public IActionResult Index()
{
var model = new WorkerModel
{
Id=1,
Name="names",
//...
Services = new List<ServiceModel>
{
new ServiceModel{ serviceID=1, myservice="service1"},
new ServiceModel{ serviceID=2, myservice="service2"},
},
//...
};
Worker worker = _mapper.Map<Worker>(model);
return Ok(worker);
}
Result.
