I m trying to POST the request using RestSharp client as follows
I m passing the Auth Code to following function
public void ExchangeCodeForToken(string code)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(code))
{
OnAuthenticationFailed();
}
else
{
var request = new RestRequest(this.TokenEndPoint, Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("code", code);
request.AddParameter("client_id", this.ClientId);
request.AddParameter("client_secret", this.Secret);
request.AddParameter("redirect_uri", "urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob");
request.AddParameter("grant_type", "authorization_code");
request.AddHeader("content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
client.ExecuteAsync<AuthResult>(request, GetAccessToken);
}
}
void GetAccessToken(IRestResponse<AuthResult> response)
{
if (response == null || response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.OK
|| response.Data == null
|| string.IsNullOrEmpty(response.Data.access_token))
{
OnAuthenticationFailed();
}
else
{
Debug.Assert(response.Data != null);
AuthResult = response.Data;
OnAuthenticated();
}
}
But i am getting response.StatusCode = Bad Request. Can anyone help me for how do i POST the request using Restsharp client.
My RestSharp POST method:
var client = new RestClient(ServiceUrl);
var request = new RestRequest("/resource/", Method.POST);
// Json to post.
string jsonToSend = JsonHelper.ToJson(json);
request.AddParameter("application/json; charset=utf-8", jsonToSend, ParameterType.RequestBody);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
try
{
client.ExecuteAsync(request, response =>
{
if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
// OK
}
else
{
// NOK
}
});
}
catch (Exception error)
{
// Log
}
This way works fine for me:
var request = new RestSharp.RestRequest("RESOURCE", RestSharp.Method.POST) { RequestFormat = RestSharp.DataFormat.Json }
.AddBody(BODY);
var response = Client.Execute(request);
// Handle response errors
HandleResponseErrors(response);
if (Errors.Length == 0)
{ }
else
{ }
Hope this helps! (Although it is a bit late)
As of 2017 I post to a rest service and getting the results from it like that:
var loginModel = new LoginModel();
loginModel.DatabaseName = "TestDB";
loginModel.UserGroupCode = "G1";
loginModel.UserName = "test1";
loginModel.Password = "123";
var client = new RestClient(BaseUrl);
var request = new RestRequest("/Connect?", Method.POST);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
request.AddBody(loginModel);
var response = client.Execute(request);
var obj = JObject.Parse(response.Content);
LoginResult result = new LoginResult
{
Status = obj["Status"].ToString(),
Authority = response.ResponseUri.Authority,
SessionID = obj["SessionID"].ToString()
};
I added this helper method to handle my POST requests that return an object I care about.
For REST purists, I know, POSTs should not return anything besides a status. However, I had a large collection of ids that was too big for a query string parameter.
Helper Method:
public TResponse Post<TResponse>(string relativeUri, object postBody) where TResponse : new()
{
//Note: Ideally the RestClient isn't created for each request.
var restClient = new RestClient("http://localhost:999");
var restRequest = new RestRequest(relativeUri, Method.POST)
{
RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json
};
restRequest.AddBody(postBody);
var result = restClient.Post<TResponse>(restRequest);
if (!result.IsSuccessful)
{
throw new HttpException($"Item not found: {result.ErrorMessage}");
}
return result.Data;
}
Usage:
public List<WhateverReturnType> GetFromApi()
{
var idsForLookup = new List<int> {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
var relativeUri = "/api/idLookup";
var restResponse = Post<List<WhateverReturnType>>(relativeUri, idsForLookup);
return restResponse;
}
