REST WCF Service - Consume QueryString Parameters

Question

I have this REST WCF service.

[WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "/GetNames/{Category}?order=asc", Method = "POST", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)] 
public List<Names> GetNames(string Category)
{
    //Code to retrieve Names by category.
}

The Category parameter is mapped to {Category} in the Uri.

But how can I map the order query string in the Uri to this method?

Adding the order as a parameter method is not working.

please help. thanks in advance.

If you post code, XML or data samples, please highlight those lines in the text editor and click on the "code samples" button ( { } ) on the editor toolbar to nicely format and syntax highlight it! If you post error messages, please use the blockquotes ( ` " ` ) to properly format the error message. – Decencies

Answer 1

Have you tried - "/GetNames/{Category}?order={ordering}" in the Uritemplate and in the function

public List<Names> GetNames(string Category, string ordering)
{
  //Code to retrieve Names by category.
}
