WebAPI 2.2 Real Life Example - Feedback Admin Tool

In my second mini-series about WebAPI we'll look at a real-life solution. We'll look at a feedback-form App and a simple Feedback-Management App. The App is simple enough to learn the basics of WebAPI with basic jQuery / C# skills. In this part, I'll teach you how to create an Admin-Tool.

Pre-Requisites

  • I would recommend to watch the Basic-Series Parts 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 since it explains the very basics of WebAPI.
  • Since this is part 2.2, you would also benefit from starting with 2.1.
  • Even if you don't, make sure you have a working DNN with 2sxc 6.4 installed ( see this blog for help).
  • The App you'll install can be found in the App-Catalog - direct link here

In the following 5 minute Video, I'll show you

  1. Demonstrating the Feedback Admin-Tool
  2. Walk you through the parts of the App
  3. Explain the Razor-Loop creating the table (since we're not using AngularJS)
  4. The client side code to perform an API-Action
  5. The WebAPI Controller on the server
  6.  The "Update-Status" process
  7. The "Delete" process

Let's go!
