Hi All,

I am very new to OData service. I have created a WebAPi Odata Service with Entity Framework. I am able to get the data from service using HttpClient. I am trying to pass id value to find a record. I am not sure how to pass value to service.

Below is my code:

public string GetEquipmentDetails(int catergoryID)
{
HttpClient client1 = new HttpClient();

client1.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:50390/");
client1.DefaultRequestHeaders.ExpectContinue = false;
client1.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

HttpResponseMessage reponse = client1.GetAsync("EquipmentCategories/" + catergoryID).Result;
var equipmentDetails = reponse.Content.ReadAsAsync<odatarespoe><equipmentdetails>>().Result;
return "done";
}

But its returning an error like not acceptable.

I tried like below also but not able to get it.

HttpResponseMessage reponse = client1.GetAsync("EquipmentCategories(" + catergoryID+")").Result;

Below is OData code:
[EnableQuery]
public IHttpActionResult GetEquipmentCategory([FromODataUri] int key)
{

var results =db.Get_EquipmentDetails(1);

return Ok(results);
}

Please help me on this. How to send parameter to OData service. Please let me know if I am not clear.

Thanks!!
