[engbarbary]

problem

when pass id value of put(update) from postman it passed as 0 although it have value on link ?

i select key from post man as contenttype application/json

and this is my url

https://localhost:44326/api/Employee/put?id=5

and when put breakpoint in function put and run app

it hit breakpoint but id return with 0 although i have 5 in my link

and 5 also exist on database

[Produces("application/json")]
    [Route("api/Employee")]
    public class EmployeeController : Controller
    {
[HttpPut("{id}")]
        public IActionResult PutEmployee(int id, [FromBody] Employee employee)
        {
        
       
         
                if (id != employee.EmployeeId)
            {
                return BadRequest();
            }

           

            try
            {
                _repository.Update(employee);
            }
            catch (DbUpdateConcurrencyException)
            {
                if (!EmployeeExists(id))
                {
                    return NotFound();
                }
                else
                {
                    throw;
                }
            }

            return Ok();
        }

when run API update from angular 6 it give me bad request because id is passing by 0 ?

why is pass id as 0 and how to solve this problem ?

I work with asp.net core 2.1 visual studio 2017

and I have this function above on controller Employee

this is only function update (put) for my controller

so that how to solve problem passing 0 and

what is correct link if above is wrong ?

How did you verify that the id was 0? There's nothing there that checks to see if id = 0 ... it checks to see if id != employee.EmployeeId .... so my question is, was employee filled correctly? Was the .EmployeeId correct? Did it match id? How did you discover that id was 0?

Is the Employee object populated or is that also blank?

HAve you tried putting the id into the url rather than a querystring? e.g. https://localhost:44326/api/Employee/put/5 or even https://localhost:44326/api/Employee/5 - I am not entirely sure the /put is required. Unfortunately I don't have VS handy to test it out at the moment though so I am going on a vague memory and guesswork....
