    Hello,

    Try removing Controller from TestApiController to see if it works. More info here: http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/WebApi/

    You should be able to call the api from localhost. Just change the url to start with your localhost. Please mark a post as the answer if it helped you.

    Hi Dan, 

    You can even use these tools (fiddler is one of my best friends) to test it, localy or on other enviroments.

    Normaly I would use Postman to test my web api, looks a little like the last one you are referring to antao And Jeroen sure I tried this but it dident give me any answers back. And thanks for all your replies

    I'm having a similar issue, I've added a Controllers directory to the root of my project and placed a controller called CallsController.cs in that directory. The code for that is as follows:

    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using Umbraco.Web.WebApi;
    
    namespace CallsAPIControllerProject.Controllers
    {
        public class CallsController : UmbracoApiController
        {
           public IEnumerable<string> Test()
            {
                return new[] { "Table", "Chair", "Desk", "Computer", "Beer fridge" };
            }
        }
    }
    

    If I submit a GET request to ~/Umbraco/Api/Calls/Test/ it returns a Page Not Found error. Am I supposed to be placing the controller somewhere else?

    Hi Anthony

    When you have wrapped the ApiController inside a namespace do you then see it in the /bin folder? ... I think the file may be called CallsAPIControllerProject.dll in your case.

    If it isn't there you should add the reference and build the project... if that doesn't work then maybe try to change the namespace to CallsAPIControllerProject.ApiControllers or something else without the ".Controllers".
