Ajax Question
jQuery ajax call to ASP.NET calling wrong method
I have this ajax call here:
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/api/action/deleteData?issueID=16",
success: function (data) {
console.log(data)
},
failure: function (errMsg) {
alert('Failed, somthing went wrong, please try again!');
}
});
which is trying to call this method
public string deleteData(string issueID)
{
return "aaa";
}
however, this is calling the wrong method, its calling a method with no parameters. Why is it doing this and how can I fix this?
The action is correct or otherwise it wouldn't be going into the other method.
When I manually try to call this method with the URL, its returns the data from the wrong method. I dont get it.

Apply [ActionName("deleteData")] to your WEB API action and it will work.I justed tested on my side and it's working perfectly.Below is my ApiController:
public class actionController : ApiController
{
public string deleteData()
{
return "deleteData";
}
public string doSomething()
{
return "doSomething";
}
[ActionName("deleteData")]
[HttpGet]
public string deleteData(string issueID)
{
return "aaa";
}
}
