Cannot access Web API deployed in Azure ACS Kubernetes Cluster - azure

Question

Please help. I am trying to deploy a web API to Azure ACS Kubernetes cluster, it is a simple web API created in VSTS and the result should be like this: { "value1", "value2" }.
I plan to make the type as Cluster-IP but I want to test and access it first that is why this is LoadBalancer, the pods is running and no restart (I think it's good).
The guide I'm following is: Running Web API using Docker and Kubernetes
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.0.0.1 <none> 443/TCP 3d
sampleapi-service LoadBalancer 10.0.238.155 102.51.223.6 80:31676/TCP 1h
When I tried to browse the IP 102.51.223.6/api/values it says:

Answer 1

It seems like to me that your service isn't set to a port on the container. You have your targetPort commented out. So the service is reachable on port 80 but the service doesn't know to target the pod on that port.

Answer 2

You will need to start the service which exposes the internal port to some external Ip:port that can be used in your browser to access the service. try this after deploying your deployment and service yml files:
kubectl service sampleapi-service
