I’m following the configure PDF web api service page to setup a HTTP services (http://helpcentral.componentone.com/nethelp/C1WebAPI/ConfigurePDF.html). I can access the page http://localhost:{my testing port}/default.html. But failed to access the page with http://localhost:{my testing port}/api/pdf/. It returns the message page not find. Would you mind to help me how can I trace this issue?

Hi Andrew,
We are sorry, we are unable to replicate the issue at our end.
Please do the following and share the result with us:
With previously shared sample,
Add debug point for Startup.cs file at the starting of GetFullRoot and RegisterRoutes function and run the sample steps by steps and let us know where the error is.
Try to run the Api sample at your end which is installed when the C1 is installed on your machine.
Location: “C:\Users{user}\Documents\ComponentOne Samples\Web Api”
Also, please try to change Access permission for the downloaded sample.
