如何在webapi c＃中配置路由，以便可以使用任何变量名代替{id}

Question

I have configured the convention based routing as below in WebApiConfig.cs

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

This works fine for this api end point.

[ActionName("DeleteDataDictionary")]
public void DeleteDataDictionary(int id)
{
    //my code
}

But I want to use any meaningful name for the variable instead of id.
For example:

[ActionName("DeleteDataDictionary")]
public void DeleteDataDictionary(int dataDictionaryId)
{
    //my code
}

[ActionName("DeleteMenu")]
public void DeleteMenu(int menuId)
{
    //my code
}

The problem is it only works when I give parameter name as id.

Answer 1

Use an attribute routing instead.

[Route("api/delete-dictionary/{dataDictionaryId:int}")]
public void DeleteDataDictionary(int dataDictionaryId)
{
    //my code
}

And send a request as follows,

/api/delete-dictionary/1

Answer 2

Try using the FromRouteAttribute

Example:

[ActionName("DeleteDataDictionary")]
public void DeleteDataDictionary( [FromRoute("id")] int dataDictionaryId)
{
    // your code
}
