Web Api Configuration

Question

I have a problem.

WebApiConfig

public static class WebApiConfig
{
    public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
    {
        config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

        config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
            name: "DefaultApi",
            routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}",
            defaults: new
            {
                id = RouteParameter.Optional,
                api = "api",
                namespaces = new string[] { "able.application.api" }
            }
        );
    }
}

Global.asax

protected void Application_Start()
{
    AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
    WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);
    RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
    GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.EnsureInitialized();
}

Controller

public class ContentModelController : ApiController
{
    public ContentModelController()
    {

    }

    [HttpPost, HttpGet]
    public HttpResponseMessage Get(int? id)
    {
        return null;
    }
}

The problem is: When I call get method, I get the following error.

CallUrl: http://localhost:54531/api/ContentModel/get?id=1

Please, help me.. :(

<Error> <Message> No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI 'http://localhost:54531/api/ContentModel/get?id=1'. </Message> <MessageDetail> No type was found that matches the controller named 'ContentModel'. </MessageDetail> </Error>

Remove the defaults. They don't seem to apply to anything in the route. — Nkosi

use this template

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { action = "all", id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);

instead of this

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
        name: "DefaultApi",
        routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}",
        defaults: new
        {
            id = RouteParameter.Optional,
            api = "api",
            namespaces = new string[] { "able.application.api" }
        }
    );

in your WebApiConfig.cs file. Hope this will work for you.

Try following Saurabh Srivastava's suggestion and update your API call to: http://localhost:54531/api/ContentModel/get/1

Or you could update the method signature for Get to the following with the original call: public HttpResponseMessage Get([FromUri]int? id)
