    <p>I have GET, PUT, POST working in my WebAPI project. The last one of Http requests I am doing is DELeTE, BUT it does not work.</p> <p>I have read through many posts in here as well as other websites, none of them. e.g.</p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9692687/webapi-controller-is-not-being-reached-on-delete-command">WebAPI Controller is not being reached on DELETE command</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15619075/webapi-delete-not-working-405-method-not-allowed">WebAPI Delete not working - 405 Method Not Allowed</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13004052/asp-net-webapi-delete-verb-not-working">ASP.Net WebAPI Delete verb not working</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10906411/asp-net-web-api-put-delete-verbs-not-allowed-iis-8">ASP.NET Web API - PUT &amp; DELETE Verbs Not Allowed - IIS 8</a></p> <p><a href="http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazuredevelopment/thread/8906fd7e-a60b-484e-be63-9574b9fca44a/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazuredevelopment/thread/8906fd7e-a60b-484e-be63-9574b9fca44a/</a></p> <p>etc...</p> <p>Are there any workarounds?</p> <p>Please help, thanks.</p> <p>Update:</p> <p>My back-end code: </p> <pre><code> [HttpDelete] public HttpResponseMessage Delete(int divisionID) { if (divisionID != default(int)) { var found = dc.MedicareLocalAccounts.SingleOrDefault(m =&gt; m.DivisionID == divisionID); if (found == null) { return new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.NotFound); } dc.MedicareLocalAccounts.Remove(found); dc.SaveChanges(); return new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK); } return new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.NotFound); } </code></pre> <p>Now, if I change the parameter type from int to any classes, let's say Division</p> <pre><code>Delete(Division d) { int divisionID = d.DivisionID; //....the rest is same } </code></pre> <p>In this way, it works.</p> <p>But I just do not want to input the entire object as a parameter to make the DELETE method work as it is not necessary.</p> <p>So do you have any other better solutions?</p>

    1. COThe questions you're linking to seem to have answers that have been accepted. As such "It seems a Microsoft code issue" would appear to be incorrect (since the askers of the questions have apparently succeeded now), and "Are there any workarounds" would seem to just be asking for reposts of those answers.

    2. CO_"It seems a Microsoft code issue"_ - nope. Do you think they forgot to implement delete? It most likely is an error in **your** code, which you don't show.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
