How to read content inside [RoutePrefix("content")]

Question

Is possible to read Route Prefix value in C# web api controller. I tried out, but I couldn't find any way to access this.

[RoutePrefix("api/Account")]

How to get the value inside "" in to a variable.

Answer 1

RoutePrefix is regular .NET attribute, so you can reach it like this (assuming you are doing that from inside of controller):

// this.GetType() is type of current controller
var prefix = this.GetType().GetCustomAttribute<RoutePrefixAttribute>().Prefix;
