@Rajani Kanth ,
Anyway thanks for the speedy response .
I have following doing the same example , I unable to insert through it ,
In form i guess is the issue .I cant debug too. Because it in the Front end design code that ajax call ..
"jquery-1.7.1.js" type="text/javascript">
"text/javascript">
function AddEmp() {
var Emp = {};
Emp.FirstName = $("#txtCompanyNo").val();
Emp.LastName = $("#txtCompanyName").val();
Emp.Company = $("#txtCompanyPlace").val();
Emp.Country = $("#txtCountry").val();
$.ajax({
url: "<%=Page.ResolveUrl("/api/user/AddCompany")%>",
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
data: JSON.stringify(Emp),
dataType: "json",
success: function (response) {
alert(response);
},
error: function (x, e) {
alert('Failed');
alert(x.responseText);
alert(x.status);
}
});
}
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#btnSave").click(function (e) {
AddEmp();
e.preventDefault();
});
});
is the above code is coreect ?

Hi Karthik,

Here is sample, simple insert function using Web api (POST) .
I have often read the common question in forum posts of how to insert the ASP.Net form data using the Web API into a database. But no one has provided the proper solution. So based on the preceding requirement, I have decided to write this article. Let us start creating an application so beginners can also understand.
