Abstract
At this point, we’ve demonstrated that ASP.NET Web API is an excellent platform on which to implement REST-based services. However, what if you found yourself in a situation where you had to support existing legacy (asmx-based or SOAP-based) clients? Or clients that required messages to be in XML format? Would that automatically eliminate ASP.NET Web API as a technology choice? Fortunately, the answer is no.
