Its not good idea to add .NET Core Web API to an existing .NET core (3.1) Web Application project.. first of all you have to set "Default Project" from your solution, and both project have entry point or start up class. So if you want you can marge both project, you can move your controller and service from .NET Core Web API to .NET core (3.1) Web Application project, that may large work if your project size is big...
