Hi, you are just getting ahead of yourself, there's no need to put the placeholder for Id yet:

package com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.controller;

import com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.model.Contact;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;

@Controller
public class ContactController {
    @RequestMapping("/")
    public String home() {
      return "index";
    }

  @RequestMapping("/contact")
public String contactDetail(ModelMap modelMap) {
     Contact c = new Contact(1, "Jim","Jimmy","JJ@email.com");
     modelMap.put("contact", c);
     return "contact_detail";
 }
}
