Documenting and trying out web services

You can easily try out a web service by making HTTP GET requests using a browser. To try out other HTTP methods, we need a more advanced tool. But let's start by trying out GET requests using a browser.

Making GET requests using a browser

You will use Chrome to try out the three implementations of a GET request—for all customers, for customers in a specified country, and for a single customer using their unique customer ID:

  1. In Northwind.WebApi, in the Properties folder, in launchSettings.json, for the https profile, change the launchUrl to request all customers, as shown highlighted in the following markup:
"launchUrl": "api/customers",
  1. Start the Northwind.WebApi web service project using the https launch profile.
  2. Start Chrome, navigate to https://localhost:5091/api/customers, and note the JSON document returned, containing all 91 customers in the Northwind database (unsorted), as shown in Figure 9.2:
