example HttpClient c# Post
//Base code from: http://zetcode.com/csharp/httpclient/ public async string Example() { //The data that needs to be sent. Any object works. var pocoObject = new { Name = "John Doe", Occupation = "gardener" }; //Converting the object to a json string. NOTE: Make sure the object doesn't contain circular references. string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(pocoObject); //Needed to setup the body of the request StringContent data = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"); //The url to post to. var url = "https://httpbin.org/post"; var client = new HttpClient(); //Pass in the full URL and the json string content var response = await client.PostAsync(url, data); //It would be better to make sure this request actually made it through string result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); //close out the client client.Dispose(); return result; }
