Access another project’s controller in the same Solution

Question

Guys I have 3 projects in the same Solution: Knockdocweb, Kanodockmodels and Knodockapi as shown in the image below:

When I compile the project it starts Kanodockweb, but I want to Access a Controller that is in Kanodocapi by Kanodockweb.

I want to access a controller called User Controller and the Login method;

I want to know, in the URL how I access that controller?

I’ve already tried:

localhost:18459/UsuarioApi/Login
localhost:18459/api/UsuarioApi/Login
localhost:18459 /KnockDocApi/UsuarioApi/Login

None I have succeeded.

One more thing:

When I give a brakpoint on any Knockdocapi controller I have the following message: The breakpoint will not Currently be hit. No Symbols have been Loaded for this Document.

Just noting that Kanodockapi is a Web Api type project

Please, somebody help me???

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Robson, you’re working with 2 Web Application projects, to run, they would need to be published (on a web server or a virtual web server as you’re doing there). What you want to do is the same as 2 websites communicate and exchange information. To be able to run the 2, you would have to open a door for each application. However, it would still not be possible to make these calls, only independent. Your attempts don’t work because Knockdocweb is running on port 18459, not Knockdocapi. I advise you to create a new Class Library type project that will contain the logic of this controller you need to call. Thus, it can be shared on both web sites.
