When I deploy the Blazor WebAssembly, API stops responding

Question

Application = Blazor Web Assembly PWA Framework 6.0

API = Rest Api .netcore Framework 5.0

WEB Address = localtesting.mydomain.com

API Address = (localtesting.mydomain.com/api) Virtual directory.

I created virtual directory and uploaded my API in virtual directory. APi Works fine as expected

Then i try to upload Blazor WASM on root folder but when i do so API stops working. As wasm is redirecting URL.

I think its due to fallout rule from blazor which is handled by web.config

i tried to edit web.config but cant get it to work

so i am tryig to add a rule in web.config to not intercept requests for API.

i have tried to edit web.config but still cant get it to work as blazor redirects all requests to wwwroot folder

Following is the web.config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <system.webServer>
    <staticContent>
      <remove fileExtension=".blat" />
      <remove fileExtension=".dat" />
