ASP.Net is struggling to match up your Ajax post to an appropriate controller action because there isn't one that matches what you're trying to call.

In this case you're trying to pass an object {'final':'final'} but are accepting a string. Post(string final) and ASP.Net cannot match this to any particular action that has POST enabled.

You can stringify your javascript object

return $http({
   method: "POST",                       
   url: config.APIURL + 'Parts',
   data: JSON.stringify({'final':'final'}), // Strinify your object
   headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
 });

Or, change your server side method to receive a class to match the object you're supplying. For example:

// DTO MyObject - .Net will ModelBind your javascript object to this when you post
public class MyObject{
  public string final {get;set;}
}
// change string here to your DTO MyObject
public Part Post(MyObject final){
      ...
}
