Ajax Post: 405 Method Not Allowed

Question

Within my API Controller called Payment, I have the following method:

[HttpPost]
public HttpResponseMessage Charge(Payment         


        

Answer 1

Most likely your routing is not configured for the action to be invoked. Hence the request ends up in nowhere and ASP.NET Web API sends a blank-out message "method not allowed".

Can you please update the question with your routing?

UPDATE

As I thought! You are sending to http://localhost:65396/api/payment/charge while you need to send to http://localhost:65396/api/payment - assuming your controller is called PaymentController.

Note that route does not have action.
