WebApi Configuration With Mvc Areas

If your project already contains a WebApiConfig.cs file, great! You just need to add a route like below:

public static class WebApiConfig

{

public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)

{

config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(

name: "DefaultApi",

routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",

defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }

);

// NEW ROUTE FOR YOUR AREA

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(

name: "API Area Default",

routeTemplate: "api/AREA/{controller}/{id}",

defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }

);

}
