How to pass multiple parameters to DELETE request C# Rest API

I need to pass 3 parameters to my API DELETE request. Here is my code what I have try.

TaskModel

public class TaskModel
{
    public int DeveloperID { get; set; }
    public int ProjectID { get; set; }
    public string WorkDate { get; set; }
}

This a controller class. called TaskController

    [Route("api/Task")]
    public void Delete(TaskModel value)
    {
        TaskPersistent tp = new TaskPersistent();
        tp.deleteTask(value);
    }

This is TaskPersistent.class

public void deleteTask(TaskModel task)
{
    try
    {
        string sqlString = "DELETE from devproj WHERE (DeveloperID, ProjectID, WorkDate) =  VALUES ('" + task.DeveloperID + "', '" + task.ProjectID + "', '" + task.WorkDate + "')"; // System.NullReferenceException throw
        MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand cmd = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlCommand(sqlString, conn);
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        long x = cmd.LastInsertedId;
    }
    catch (MySqlException x)
    {
        int errr = x.Number;

        Console.WriteLine(errr);
    }
}

I consume this API using ARC rest client like this,http://localhost:2731/api/Task?DeveloperID=1&ProjectID=2&WorkDate="2018-03-14" But when I pass the parameters like this,API thrown exception: 'System.NullReferenceException' in DeleteAPI.dll (I commented error occurred line in my code). What I did wrong here.

string sqlString = "DELETE from devproj WHERE (DeveloperID, ProjectID, WorkDate) =  VALUES ('" + task.DeveloperID + "', '" + task.ProjectID + "', '" + task.WorkDate + "')"; // System.NullReferenceException throw

This query don't work. SQL delete is :

string sqlString = $"DELETE from devproj WHERE DeveloperID = {task.DeveloperID} AND ProjectID = {task.ProjectID} AND WorkDate = {task.WorkDate}";

And don't forget to check for null value in your model before execute query.

You need to consume this API by posting your TaskModel as a body for the model binder to work with the way you have your Delete controller action set up. Alternatively, change the Delete method parameters to int developerId, int projectId, DateTime workDate.

    [Route("api/Task")]
    public void Delete(int developerId, int projectId, DateTime workDate)
    {
        var taskModel = new TaskModel
        {
            DeveloperId = developerId,
            ProjectID = projectId,
            WorkDate = workDate
        };
        TaskPersistent tp = new TaskPersistent();
        tp.deleteTask(taskModel);
    }
