AngularJS HTTP POST using ng-file

I can't seem to get this working with ng-file upload. I need to pass in fine in my controller with bridge Id

The error I'm getting is:

"{"Message":"No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI 
'http://localhost/api/BridgeController/'.","MessageDetail":"No type was 
found that matches the controller named 'BridgeController'."}"

Can't figure out why it can't find my method. Any ideas?

Here is my controller code that will get moved into a service

$scope.uploadFile = function (file) {
    console.log("hitting file upload", $scope.selectedBridge);
    if (file) {
        debugger;

        var request = {
            method: 'POST',
            url: '/api/Bridge/UploadBridgeImage',
            data: angular.toJson($scope.selectedBridge.BridgeID),
            file: file,
            headers: { 'Content-Type': undefined }
        };

        Upload.upload(request).then(function (response) {

        });
    }
}

and back end C#

[HttpPost]
[Route("api/Bridge/UploadBridgeImage")]
public IHttpActionResult UploadBridgeImage()
{
    try
    {
        var uploadedFiles = HttpContext.Current.Request.Files;

        for (int i = 0; i < uploadedFiles.Count; i++)
        {
            var fileToSave = uploadedFiles[i];

            var fileBytes = _iStremHelper.GetBytes(fileToSave.InputStream, fileToSave.ContentLength);
            var file = BridgeFileEntity(fileBytes, fileToSave, 1);

            using (_iFileRepository)
            {
                _iFileRepository.Save(file);
            }
        }
        return Ok();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return InternalServerError();
    }
}

Edited Code Here. I was able to hit my break point in that post method in my C# controller. File have all the data I need. Now I need to get "data" some how. Any idea where is it located in context?

In order to get both file stream (in memory) and additional json data in web api controller you can define custom MultipartStreamProvider:

class MultipartFormDataInMemoryStreamProvider : MultipartFormDataRemoteStreamProvider
{
    public override RemoteStreamInfo GetRemoteStream(HttpContent parent, HttpContentHeaders headers)
    {
        return new RemoteStreamInfo(new MemoryStream(), string.Empty, string.Empty);
    }
}

Then use it in controller:

public async Task<IHttpActionResult> UploadBridgeImage()
{
    var provider = await Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(new MultipartFormDataInMemoryStreamProvider());
    foreach (var httpContent in provider.Contents)
    {
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(httpContent.Headers.ContentDisposition?.FileName))
        {
            var byteArray = await httpContent.ReadAsByteArrayAsync();
            //do whatever you need with byteArray
        }
    }

    var bridgeId = provider.FormData["bridgeId"];

    return Ok();
}

And on client side:

var request = {
    url: '/api/Bridge/UploadBridgeImage',
    data: {
        file:file,
        bridgeId:$scope.selectedBridge.BridgeID
    }
};

Upload.upload(request).then(function (response) {

});
