The path template 'LibWorkspaces(company={key})' on the action 'GetLibWorkspaces' in controller 'LibWorkspaces' is not a valid OData path template

My controller code is: [EnableQuery] public class LibWorkspacesController : ODataController {

   [ODataRoute("LibWorkspaces(company={key})")]
    public IHttpActionResult GetLibWorkspaces([FromODataUri] string company) 
    {
        LibWorkspaces libWorkspaces = new LibWorkspaces();
        return Ok(libWorkspaces.getList(company).AsQueryable());
    }

There is a: builder.EntitySet("LibWorkspaces"); in the webapiconfig

But I am getting the error "The path template 'LibWorkspaces(company={key})' on the action 'GetLibWorkspaces' in controller 'LibWorkspaces' is not a valid OData path template"

What do I need to do to return a generic list for a parameter? Thanks in advance

  1. For [ODataRoute("LibWorkspaces(company={key})")], just make sure company is same as the key name (Case sensitive). Besides, the parameter name of GetLibWorkspaces should be same as the string in {}. Therefore, in your scenario, your action should have the following definition:

    public IHttpActionResult GetLibWorkspaces([FromODataUri] string key)

  2. For single key scenario, you can omit the key name in the ODataRoute attribute. For example:

    [ODataRoute("LibWorkspaces({anyKeyName})")]

    public IHttpActionResult GetLibWorkspaces([FromODataUri] string anyKeyName)

    { ... }

Thanks.
