I want my webapi endpoint to have a Get action without resource.

Ex: http://localhost:56155/ Resource: api/program/get, this action I want to hit when someone hit

http://localhost:56155/ in the browser. Is that possible?

I added this in webapiconfig.cs

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( 
     name: "DefaultApi", 
     routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}", 
     defaults: new { controller = "Program", 
                     action = "Get", 
                     id = RouteParameter.Optional 
     } 
);
But it does not redirect or hit the action Get of my Program controller when I launch the app.

You have mandatory segment api in your routeTemplate routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}".

Just remove this segment and the route will work with the empty url routeTemplate: "{controller}/{action}/{id}".

i hope this helps
