17.1: Test GetById

Test the GetNoteById method

In this section, we will test the endpoint that gets a specific note by id.

1. Make sure your API is running and open Postman

2. Add the API endpoint to the end of the URL api/Note/1

   • The # at the end must be the id of a note that is in the database for the specific user

3. Choose GET

4. We also need our token

   • Remember that Http is stateless, the server does not remember our last request

   • We need the token as a kind of hand stamp to let us have authenticated access

5. Make sure you have a token copied after the word Bearer in the values column

   

6. Click Send and you should get 200 OK

Next, we'll test the Post method.
