Custom routing for GET/POST/DELETE does not match - asp.net-web-api

What I'm trying to do is to use similar route template in my custom route as the default route template uses, but getting 405 - METHOD NOT ALLOWED.
First one matches the GET request # api/accounts/abc123/contacts but that's about it. Other two don't match, where as the default route # api/{controller}/{id} matches all four verbs.
EDIT: Updated route definitions
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "ContactsApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id1}/contacts"
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "AddressesApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id2}/addresses"
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "CoverageApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id3}/coverage"
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "AccountsApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id4}/accounts"
);
I'm trying to map above routes to below actions:
EDIT: Updated with {id1} parameter as per above route definition.
[HttpGet]
public List<Contact> GetContacts(string id)
{
return accounts.GetContacts(id);
}
[HttpPost]
public void PostContacts(string id1, [FromBody]IEnumerable<Contact> contacts)
{
bool success = accounts.AssignContacts(id, contacts);
}
[HttpDelete]
public void DeleteContacts(string id1, [FromBody]IEnumerable<Contact> contacts)
{
bool success = accounts.RemoveContacts(id, contacts);
}
I just want to keep my routes consistent...

You only need to have the one route to match the actions given above:
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "ApiContacts",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}/contacts"
);
Because your actions start with the relevant http verb, the corresponding action will be called.

WebAPI Multi Route

I added 2 route, the following is my code
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "HandheldApi",
routeTemplate: "api/handheld/{controller}/{action}"
);
When I use the following link http://localhost:64886/api/Account/Get, this link is work for me
But I use the following link http://localhost:64886/api/handheld/Account/Get, the server return "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI"
How can I do? I must set 2 route because the new route is new mapping, the default route will be obsoleted
You didn't define the defaults parameter for your second route. Hope this will work-
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "HandheldApi",
routeTemplate: "api/handheld/{controller}/{action}"
defaults: new { controller = "MyController", action = "MyMethod" }
);

something wrong with wep api route

My registered routes mapping looks like this:
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "WithActionApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = System.Web.Http.RouteParameter.Optional }
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
And, controller looks like this:
// [Route("???????????")]
[HttpGet]
public HttpResponseMessage GetPatientProviderData([FromUri] PatientProviderIncomingDto ppDto)
{
var response = Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, _claimDetailService.GetPatientProviderData(ppDto.patientId, ppDto.facilityGroupId, ppDto.claimId));
return response;
}
I'm making a GET call like this:
http://localhost:xxxx/api/claims/GetPatientProviderData?patientId=180&facilityGroupId=9&claimId=21
But, it's not hitting the URL. I was expecting it to hit the URL and that the supplied parameters get converted into DTO.

WEB API routing actions multiple

May I define a Route for an specific Controller ?
The 3th Route, route to a Controller with somes Actions, but the Route only work fine if is placed before the rest.
Some suggestions , please?
// ex: api/groups/Collective1/john01
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: ControllerAndCollectiveAndUserID,
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{collective}/{userid}",
defaults: null, //defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
constraints: new
{
collective = #"^[a-zA-Z\d]+$",
userid = #"^[a-zA-Z\d]+$"
}
);
// ex: api/groups/Collective1
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: ControllerAndCollective,
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{collective}",
defaults: null, //defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
constraints: new
{
collective = #"^[a-zA-Z\d]+$"
}
);
// ex: api/users/pending
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: ControllerAction,
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}"
);
// ex: api/persons
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: ControllerOnly,
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}"
);

How do i redirect when version number is not included in url (Url Web Api Versioning)

i have this route attribute in my api controller "[RoutePrefix("api/v5/test")]". I want to allow my api to be consumed without specifying the version no. If no version no is included in url, then server will redirect request to latest api version. How can i do this?
/api/v1/products
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "V1Api",
routeTemplate: "api/v1/products",
defaults: new { controller = V1_Products }
);
/api/v2/products
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "V2Api",
routeTemplate: "api/v2/products",
defaults: new { controller = V2_Products }
);
/api/products
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/products",
defaults: new { controller = V2_Products }
);
There is no way to add multiple RoutePrefix's on a controller.
One possible solution is to add multiple routes for each method. You can use '~' to specify the absolute path and ignore the RoutePrefix for the controller.
Example:
[RoutePrefix("api/v5/test)]
public class TestV5Controller : ApiController
{
[Route("{id}")]
[Route("~/api/latest/test/{id}")]
[HttpGet]
public IHttpResult Get()
{
return Ok("Hello World");
}
}

Asp.Net Mvc Web Api Routing 404

I try to something on Web Api. First I will share my WebApiConfig
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { id = #"^[0-9]+$" }
);
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "ApiCategory",
routeTemplate: "api/tales/{category}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Tales", id = RouteParameter.Optional},
constraints: new { category = #"^[a-z]+$" }
);
I read this issue and I fix my apiconfig file. My purpose like this:
List GetAllTales() = api/tales/ -> 404 Not Found
Tale GetTale(int id) = api/tales/1 -> Ok!
List GetAllTalesByCategory(string categoryName) = api/tales/kids -> Ok!
Tale GetTalesByCategoryAndId(string categoryName, int id) = api/tales/kids/1 -> Ok!
İf u wonder my ApiController
[HttpGet]
public Tale GetAllTalesByCategoryAndId(string category, int id){}
[HttpGet]
public IEnumerable<Tale> GetAllTalesByCategory(string category){}
[HttpGet]
public IEnumerable<Tale> GetAllTales(){}
[HttpGet]
public Tale GetTale(int id){}
Thanks for all replies.
You need to switch the route order. Default route will handle the request when you don't specify an id (api/tales) so you need to place your custom route before that.
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "ApiCategory",
routeTemplate: "api/tales/{category}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Tales",
id = RouteParameter.Optional,
category = RouteParameter.Optional});
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { id = #"^[0-9]+$" }
);
