Remarks

WebApiDataStoreClient uses the System.Net.Http.HttpClient) component. To operate correctly, HttpClient.BaseAddress should point to a controller route.

HttpClient merges BaseAddress with a relative URI according to section 5.2.3. Merge Paths. This means that HttpClient excludes the last segment of the BaseAddress. To prevent this, add a slash (/) to the end of the BaseAddress.
