    Umbraco api controller, attribute route with name and backoffice

    Hi,

    I am trying to use attribute routing with umbraco api controller. Everything works until i want to give my route a name, like so:

    [RoutePrefix("api/sub/value")]
    public class ValueController : UmbracoApiController
    {
    
        [Route(Name = "GetValues")]
        public FormattedContentResult<string> Get()
        {
    
            return base.Content(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Content", new JsonMediaTypeFormatter());
        }
    }
    

    The route works quite well, however, when i try to log in to backoffice i am met with this:

    System.ArgumentException: A route named 'GetValues' is already in the route collection. Route names must be unique.
    Parameter name: name

    An example can be found here:

    It doesnt matter what i name the route, it always fails in backoffice.

    My question is, why is it double registered when i add the routename to me route attribute?

    I don't think this kind of routing is permitted by default. You can specify a area and a controllername for the apicontroller:
