It's not recommended to use Session in Web API for various of good reasons. However, in case you're still so interested to access Session for any business needs, here is a quick solution to allow accessing Session in Web API. // In global.asax public class MvcApp : System.Web.HttpApplication { public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { var route = routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi" , routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}" , defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); route.RouteHandler = new MyHttpControllerRouteHandler(); } } // Create two new classes public class MyHttpControllerHandler : HttpControllerHandler, IRequiresSessionState { public MyHttpControllerHandler(RouteData routeData): base (routeData) { } } public class MyHttpControllerRouteHandler : HttpControllerRouteHandler { protected override IHttpHandler GetHttpHandler(RequestContext requestContext) { return new MyHttpControllerHandler(requestContext.RouteData); } } // Now Session is visible in your Web API public class ValuesController : ApiController { public string GET( string input) { var session = HttpContext.Current.Session; if (session != null ) { if (session[ "Time" ] == null ) session[ "Time" ] = DateTime.Now; return "Session Time: " + session[ "Time" ] + input; } return "Session is not availabe" + input; } }

If you want to pass data from one page to another. You have 3 options with you ViewData ViewBag TempData I think so TempData will solve your problem. If not just let me know. Thanks, Sahil Maheshwary
