POST WITH TOKEN C #

I need to do this from C #, it's a post that works ok from the web, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I leave a picture of the F12 when I act on the web, I try to do the same in C # but I can't get it to work.
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("https://xxxxxxxxxxxxx");
var Token = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
request.Headers.Add("accessToken", Token);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Method = "POST";
using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream()))
{
var data = "lockId=xxxxx";
streamWriter.Write(data);
}
var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
{
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
MessageBox.Show(result);
}
response.Close();
}

How can I call an API resource in C# with a path parameter containing a slash character

I want to create a simple Windows service in C# that calls an API REST resource periodically.
The resource has a path parameter in its URL, and the variable I want to send has slashes "/".
How cant I make the call without it looking for the worng resource because of the slash?
This is my code:
httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(URI + Param); //Param : "F51D0_TX_PULSE_300_009/IDX2" and URI : "http://bla.net:8080/meter/"
httpWebRequest.ContentType = ContentType;
httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
httpWebRequest.Headers.Add("KeyId", Key);
httpWebRequest.Timeout = m_TimeOutForecast;
httpWebRequest.Proxy = Proxy;
using(var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream())) {
streamWriter.Write(bodyRequest);
streamWriter.Flush();
streamWriter.Close();
}
using(httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse) httpWebRequest.GetResponse()) {
if (httpResponse.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) {
using(StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream())) {
responseFromAPI = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
}

Where can I add a GET method after a POST is made?

I have a POST Method that passes the login credentials to the API. Once the login is successful I will need to perform a GET method to retrieve some data.
var httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://url");
httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()))
{
string json = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(new
{
login = "myLogin",
password = "myPassword"
});
streamWriter.Write(json);
}
//Do I implement the GET request right here? Any advice is appreciated.
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
Response.Write(result);
}

I Should implement the get after
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();

Login into iCloud via Json Post request

I'm trying to log in into iCloud using a Json Post request in C#. Before trying to implement the code I was studying a little bit the iCloud requests using Chrome Console and using an Ad-on to replicate the requests in order to obtain the same result of the website.
First of All I checked the request directly from iCloud website:
And this is the response:
{
"serviceErrors" : [ {
"code" : "-20101",
"message" : "Il tuo ID Apple o la password non sono corretti."
} ]
}
Using "Advance REST Client" ad Chrome plugin to replicate the request I ve tried the same Json request to the same Url. But I get Empty response:
I Also tried to copy and paste the whole Header (All the settings) and than send the request but the response is the same:
Anyone has an Advice?
UPDATE: I tried to implement A Json request through c# program:
var httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://idmsa.apple.com/appleauth/auth/signin");
httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()))
{
string json = "{accountName: \"briesanji #gmail.com\", password: \"testPassword\", rememberMe: false, trustTokens: []}";
streamWriter.Write(json);
streamWriter.Flush();
streamWriter.Close();
}
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}
The problem is that Execution breaks when the
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
is hit and it gives me this error: System.Net.WebException: 'Error Remote Server: (400) Request not valid.'
UPDATE: I solved in this way:
void POST(string url, string jsonContent)
{
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.Method = "POST";
System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoding = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
Byte[] byteArray = encoding.GetBytes(jsonContent);
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
request.ContentType = #"application/json";
using (Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
}
long length = 0;
try
{
using (HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
{
length = response.ContentLength;
}
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
// Log exception and throw as for GET example above
}
}
string GET(string url)
{
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
try
{
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
using (Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream())
{
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8);
return reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
WebResponse errorResponse = ex.Response;
using (Stream responseStream = errorResponse.GetResponseStream())
{
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.GetEncoding("utf-8"));
String errorText = reader.ReadToEnd();
// log errorText
}
throw;
}
}
Anyways I tested also the Answer and it was good to.. So I check it as valid thanks.

With this i dont get any error and the response content of the second request just tells me that there were too many failed logins for the test account...

c# http Post not getting anything in webresponse

Here's my code for Request and Response.
System.IO.MemoryStream xmlStream = null;
HttpWebRequest HttpReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
xmlStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(format));
byte[] buf2 = xmlStream.ToArray();
System.Text.UTF8Encoding UTF8Enc = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
string s = UTF8Enc.GetString(buf2);
string sPost = "XMLData=" + System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlDecode(s);
byte[] bPostData = UTF8Enc.GetBytes(sPost);
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
HttpReq.Timeout = 30000;
request.Method = "POST";
request.KeepAlive = true;
using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
requestStream.Write(bPostData, 0, bPostData.Length);
requestStream.Close();
}
string responseString = "";
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
responseString = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
No part of this code crashes. The "format" string is the one with XML in it. By the end when you try to see what's in the responseString, it's an empty string. I am supposed to see the XML sent back to me from the URL. Is there something missing in this code?

I would recommend a simplification of this messy code:
using (var client = new WebClient())
{
var values = new NameValueCollection
{
{ "XMLData", format }
};
byte[] resultBuffer = client.UploadValues(url, values);
string result = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(resultBuffer);
}
and if you wanted to upload the XML directly in the POST body you shouldn't be using application/x-www-form-urlencoded as content type. You probably should specify the correct content type, like this:
using (var client = new WebClient())
{
client.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType] = "text/xml";
var data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(format);
byte[] resultBuffer = client.UploadData(url, data);
string result = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(resultBuffer);
}
