Web API issues

Web API methods return the 405 Method Not Allowed error​

When you use PUT or DELETE requests, you may obtain the 405 Method Not Allowed error. At the same time, POST and GET requests may work properly.

Solution​

You can disable WebDAV in the web.config file. Add the following code to the <system.webServer> node.

<modules>
    <remove name="WebDAVModule" />
</modules>
<handlers>
    <remove name="WebDAV" />
</handlers>

Alternatively, you can remove the WebDAV Publishing role from your server.
