Postman 400 Bad Request for web Api

asp.net-core-webapihttppostman

I have a very basic webApi built/running (pretty much template app, nothing more) in order to follow a training video. The GET and DELETE calls work fine, PUT and POST give a 400 error. Admittedly very new to all this so I'm looking for some basic direction as to how to troubleshoot. Pertinent screen shots follow, I'd be glad to provide others as requested. Thanks in advance.

Best Answer

you are trying to make POST request which needs string value in its body.

Step to the Body section of the Postman Request, select form-data after that add value as parameterName and This is test string as parameter value
