Passing array of integers to WebAPI method in URI params?

Question

I have the following:

    [HttpDelete]
    public HttpResponseMessage DeleteFolder(int[] ids)
    {

and I'm trying to use this:

DELETE http://localhost:24144/api/folder/1483;
DELETE http://localhost:24144/api/folder/[1483]

but these are coming up as null within the delete method - how do I send the data without putting it in the body (since this is a DELETE request)?

My routing has this:

            routes.MapHttpRoute(
           name: "Folder",
           routeTemplate: "api/folder/{id}",
           defaults: new { controller = "Folder", id = RouteParameter.Optional }
            );

Nevermind, I found this:

Couldn't find an answer on SO though so I'll leave it here.

Exerpt from the above linked page:

[HttpGet()]
public HttpResponseMessage FindByMembers([FromUri]Int32[] ids = null)
{
   //Do stuff
    return Request.CreateResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK);
}

The Url will be http://mywebsite/api/mycontroller/findbymembers/?ids=1&ids=2&ids=3.
