RestSharp post request - Body with x-www-form-urlencoded values
this working for me, it was generator from postman
var token = new TokenValidation()
{
app_id = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("appId"),
secret = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("secret"),
grant_type = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("grant_type"),
Username = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("Username"),
Password = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("Password"),
};
var client = new RestClient($"{xxx}{tokenEndPoint}");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.AddHeader("content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
request.AddParameter("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", $"app_id={token.app_id}&secret={token.secret}&grant_type={token.grant_type}&Username={token.Username}&Password={token.Password}", ParameterType.RequestBody);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
if (response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
Console.WriteLine("Access Token cannot obtain, process terminate");
return null;
}
var tokenResponse = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<TokenValidationResponse>(response.Content);
I personally find this way to work better for me when sending Form-UrlEncoded data.
public void GetResponse() {
var client = new RestClient("api-url-here");
var req = new RestRequest("endpoint-here",Method.POST);
var config = new ClientConfig();//values to pass in request
// Content type is not required when adding parameters this way
// This will also automatically UrlEncode the values
req.AddParameter("client_id",config.client_id, ParameterType.GetOrPost);
req.AddParameter("grant_type",config.grant_type, ParameterType.GetOrPost);
req.AddParameter("client_secret",config.client_secret, ParameterType.GetOrPost);
req.AddParameter("scope",config.scope, ParameterType.GetOrPost);
req.AddParameter("response_type",config.response_type, ParameterType.GetOrPost);
var res = client.Execute(req);
return;
}
