this is what you need to do Open NuGet Package manager consol and run PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi Add references to System.Web.Routing, System.Web.Net and System.Net.Http dlls if not there already Right click controllers folder > add new item > web > Add Web API controller Web.config will be modified accordingly by VS Add Application_Start(){} method if not there already protected void Application_Start() { //this should be line #1 in this method GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register); } Add the following class (I added in global.asax.cs file) public static class WebApiConfig { public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config) { // Web API routes config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes(); config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); } } Modify web api method accordingly namespace { public class VSController : ApiController { // GET api/ : url to use => api/vs public string Get() { return "Hi from web api controller"; } // GET api/ /5 : url to use => api/vs/5 public string Get(int id) { return (id + 1).ToString(); } } } Rebuild and test Build a simple html page /jquery-1.9.1.min.js"> var uri = '/api/vs'; $(document).ready(function () { $.getJSON(uri) .done(function (data) { alert('got: ' + data); }); $.ajax({ url: '/api/vs/5', async: true, success: function (data) { alert('seccess1'); var res = parseInt(data); alert('got res=' + res); } }); }); .... or go to this address for full answers
