Using Parts of GUID as ID

Question

I\'m developing an ASP .Net MVC application. One of my actions requires id as a parameter. For example:

public actionresult Detail(Guid id){
            


        

Answer 1

Some other options to consider- * If there are more than one Details with GUIDs starting with 0c157b42, have the URL localhost/Detail/0c157b42 show a list of applicable Details objects. * URL aliasing - allow for a "Friendly URL" field on the Details object.
