Learn how to use the DELETE method in a Web API with C#!
In this video, we complete our CRUD operations series by learning how to delete data from a list using the DELETE method. After covering the GET, POST, and PUT methods in previous lessons, it’s time to see how to safely remove items from our API.
We’ll walk through the entire process step by step:
How to create a DELETE endpoint in your Web API
How to validate the ID (index) before deleting
How to handle invalid IDs with error messages
How to test DELETE requests using Postman in Visual Studio Code
We’ll also try both unsuccessful and successful requests so you can clearly understand how error handling and deletion work in real scenarios. Finally, we’ll confirm the deletion by fetching the updated list with the GET method.
