MVC 4.5 Web API Routing not working?

Question

The 1st route works.

e.g. api/Shelves/SpaceTypes/1

The 2nd route doesn\'t work. I get multiple actions error.

e.g api/Shelves/1<

@Kristof is almost right. You should make your second route:

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
    "DefaultApiWithId", 
    "api/{controller}/{id}",
    new { action = "Get" },
    new { id = @"\d+ }
    );
