    Is there any example for creating Umbraco Rest Api?

    I want to create a MVC Umbraco Rest Api using package "Install-Package UmbracoCms.RestApi" without installing UmbracoCms package.

    I want to host umbraco service using class Umbraco.Web.WebApi.UmbracoApiController.

    Is there any example out for this?

    Hi Nekesh,

    You can't use UmbracoCms.RestApi without UmbracoCms definitely.

    If you need to use 'UmbracoApiController' - just install UmbracoCms, this class there out of the box.

    Cheers, Alex

    I wrote an article in 24days.in/umbraco series last year and included a simple proof on concept using API in current version.

    Feel free to check it and use / adopt into your project: http://24days.in/umbraco/2015/umbraco-rest-api/

    Playground with code is on my GitHub: https://github.com/mzajkowski/umbraco-rest-api-playground

    Let me know if it helped you :)

    Alex.. UmbracoCms worked for me.

    However, If we are installing CMS then how can we create a standalone Umbraco API just like REST services?

    Any help will be helpful.

    Hi Nekesh,

    Do you mean you don't need Umbraco context? Umbraco CMS? Only REST ?

    I didn't understand why you can't use usual WebAPI if you don't need Umbraco )

    Thanks, Alex
