Call WebApi controller from another controller

So I have two projects in my solution. Both are WebApi. I have controllers in both and I can call them from the client side - javascript. The problem is that I need to call a method in the controller of the second project from method in the controller of the first project. I also think I should state that the method I need to call is Post so I need to send it parameters as well. Is this possible at all? I heard about "RedirectToAction" method but I think this won't work in webapi.

You should not need to POST to the second controller.

Create some shared code in your project and have both controllers use this. If you have the variables needed for a POST in the first controller, you can simply pass these to the shared method.
