    Modify Umbraco's web api route?

    Extending Umbraco and using the API
    Umbraco 7

    By default, Umbraco's web api controllers uses the following route: ~/Umbraco/Api/[YourControllerName].

    The documentation states: "Just like Surface Controllers in Umbraco, when you inherit from the base class Umbraco.Web.WebApi.UmbracoApiController we will auto-route this controller so you don't have to worry about routing at all."

    What if I want to use another route? In my case I would like to use ~/Api/v1/[ControllerName]. Is this possible?

    I think that I figured it out:

    1. Create a new web api config class:

      public static class WebApiConfig
{
    public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
    {
        config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
            name: "DefaultApi",
            routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
            defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
        );
    }
}

    2. Register it in the Application_Started event: WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);

    At a first glance it looks ok. Please let me know if I missed anything obvious
