Routing based on query string parameter name

Question

I\'m trying to configure routing in my MVC4 WebAPI project.

I want to be able to search for products based on their name or their type like so:

/api/pr

Answer 1

Are you sure that the controllers are ok? I mean, the name of the params.

    public string GetProductsByName(string name)
    {
        return "Requested name: " + name;
    }

    public string GetProductsByType(string type)
    {
        return "Requested type: " + type;
    }
