Pass long asp.net webapi parameter

Question

I would like to pass the website parameter to webapi, but it does not work.

Webapiconfig:

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); 

Web api controller: take the parameter and return the htmlsnapshot of another website

  [HttpGet] [Route("api/snapshot/{param}")] public string GetSnapShot(string param) { string fragment = param; string content = ""; if (fragment != null) { int firstSlash = fragment.IndexOf("/"); if (firstSlash <= 2) fragment = fragment.Substring(firstSlash + 1, fragment.Length - firstSlash - 1); using (IWebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver()) { string url = String.Format("http://domain.com/{0}", fragment); driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url); content = driver.PageSource; } } return content; } 

if I try api / snapshot / du-lieu -> hit the controller normally, but if I go more complicated, for example

api / snapshot /% 2Fdu-lieu% 2Fbong-da-y-Serie-A% 2Fseason% 2F1% 2Ftong-quan → does not work, returns 404

Please inform.

Answer 1

Why don't you put your parameter in the query string? Your code will become

 [HttpGet] [Route("api/snapshot")] public string GetSnapShot(string param1,string param2,string param3) { } 

And wherever you call api, create the request http://<whatever domain you use>/api/snapshot?param1=valueparam1¶m2=valueparam2¶m3=valueparam3

Answer 2

  [HttpGet] [Route("api/snapshot/{*param}")] public string GetSnapShot(string param) { } 

Now it works, thanks to everyone.
