    WEB API umbraco 4.11.1

    Hi everyone,

    What is the best way to use umbraco data from another project via HTTP ?

    Something like RESTful web api?

    Thanks,

    Alexandr

    In version 4.x and 6.0.x you can use base for this : http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/Api/Base/Index

    From version 6.1 there will be a Umbraco Web Api controller available : http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/WebApi/

    There is some more information on Umbraco base in the umbraco TV video's : http://umbraco.com/help-and-support/video-tutorials/developing-with-umbraco/base-and-ajax-development.aspx

     

    Here is a small code example

    [RestExtension("CustomData")]
public class DataService
{
  [RestExtensionMethod(returnXml = false, allowAll = true)]
  public static void Getdata(int id)
  {
    var json = //get your json data here

    // Write response and set content type
    HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "application/json";
    HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(json);
  }
}

    Now you can access your base method like this from the browser :

    http://yourdomain/base/CustomData/Getdata/<id>;
