how to pass parameters to asp.net web api get method?

Question

Following is my get method in ASP.NET Web API.

[HttpGet] public IHttpActionResult GetDetails([FromBody] RetrieveDetails eDetails) {}

following is the class

public class RetrieveDetails { public string name{ get; set; } public string Type { get; set; } }

When I try to call GetDetails from Fiddler eDetails is always null.

http://localhost:101222/api/emailservice/GetDetails?name=testname&Type=testtype

I tried different methods but the value is always null. If I change [HttpGet] to [HttpPost] and add the request body its working fine. But I need get method.

Change [FromBody] to [FromUri] and your url should work. — Nkosi

Do you need [FromBody] there if you are passing values in URL for GET. You should be using [FromUri] if you are passing values in querystring.
