The requested resource does not support HTTP method 'GET'

Solution 1:

Please use the attributes from the System.Web.Http namespace on your WebAPI actions:

    [System.Web.Http.AcceptVerbs("GET", "POST")]
    [System.Web.Http.HttpGet]
    public string Auth(string username, string password)
    {...}

The reason why it doesn't work is because you were using the attributes that are from the MVC namespace System.Web.Mvc. The classes in the System.Web.Http namespace are for WebAPI.

Solution 2:

In my case, the route signature was different from the method parameter. I had id, but I was accepting documentId as parameter, that caused the problem.

[Route("Documents/{id}")]   <--- caused the webapi error
[Route("Documents/{documentId}")] <-- solved
public Document Get(string documentId)
{
  ..
}

Solution 3:

just use this attribute

[System.Web.Http.HttpGet]

not need this line of code:

[System.Web.Http.AcceptVerbs("GET", "POST")]
