I am building a rest api in mvc. When consuming the API, I need to be able to get the referring URL that is calling the service. I have tried Request.UrlReferer and it comes back null. How can I get the url that is consuming the service?

Are you sure you don’t mean in the consumer you need to know the referer of the client making the REST call?
If this is the case what you need to do is look at the
request headerand extract from it theReferer.
