Microsoft Web API Help Page - How to Create Annotations for Parameters

Question

I recently started playing with the new api webpage page features that were recently added to the api web project template. And I noticed that in the "More Information" column is always "no."

After some consideration of the markup, I found that this information should come from attributes

<td class="parameter-annotations"> @if (parameter.Annotations.Count > 0) { foreach (var annotation in parameter.Annotations) { <p>@annotation.Documentation</p> } } else { <p>None.</p> } </td> 

But what attribute should I use to fill out additional information? Thanks

See this site for an example of how to add more information.

It basically annotates your model, so in your case it will be something like: -

 public class Product { /// <summary> /// The id of the product /// </summary> [Required] public int Id { get; set; } /// <summary> /// The name of the product /// </summary> [MaxLength(50)] public string Name { get; set; } } 

What will give you this conclusion: -
