How to call web api post method in asp.net with multiple arguments

Question

I am writing a simple Web API application. I am writing a post method to add records like this:

[Route("api/{Inspection}/{post}/{date}/{inspectorId}/{unitID}/{time}")]
[HttpPost]
public void PostInspection(string date,int inspectorId,int unitID,string time)
{
    InspectionDataClass inspectionData = new InspectionDataClass();
    inspectionData.InsertRow(date,inspectorId,unitID,false,false,"", time);
}

and call the method in browser like this:

http://localhost:34367/api/inspection/97/3/13/10

but it doesn't execute.

Your attribute :

[Route("api/{Inspection}/{post}/{date}/{inspectorId}/{unitID}/{time}")]

But you browser url with:

http://localhost:34367/api/inspection/97/3/13/10

Did you have miss the path for /{post}/?

And sorry for my last wrong anser and my pool English.I thought you have using asp.net core.

Thank you very much for your help, and your guide. I change url to " localhost:34367/api/inspection/post/97/3/13/10" but I see this message in browser : " "Message": "The requested resource does not support http method 'GET'." " Do you know this Reason?
