How to set Swagger as default start page for Web API application

• Open WebApiConfig.cs class of your Web API solution
• Add the below-highlighted code.
• This uses the RedirectHandler class of the Swashbuckle assembly.

using Swashbuckle.Application;

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Web.Http;

namespace Web.API

{

    public static class WebApiConfig

    {

        public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)

        {

            // Web API configuration and services

            // Web API routes

            config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

            //config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(

            //    name: "DefaultApi",

            //    routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",

            //    defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }

            //);

            // Redirect root to Swagger UI

            config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(

                name: "Swagger UI",

                routeTemplate: "",

                defaults: null,

                constraints: null,

                handler: new RedirectHandler(SwaggerDocsConfig.DefaultRootUrlResolver, "swagger/ui/index"));

        }

    }

}
