(400) Bad Request, can't get response (Custom minecraft launcher)

I just can't seem to be able to post a JSON to the webpage https://authserver.mojang.com/authenticate and get a response.
when I post the JSON it just says
The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request
I've gone through many different scripts by others and created my own by converting the Java code to C#. Anyway, here's the code that has worked the best so far.
string authserver = "https://authserver.mojang.com/authenticate";
byte[] rawData = fs.GetBytes(**[JSON]**);
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(authserver);
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.Method = "POST";
//request.ContentLength = rawData.LongLength;
WebResponse connection = request.GetResponse();
connection.ContentType = "application/json";
connection.ContentLength = rawData.LongLength;
Stream stream = connection.GetResponseStream();
stream.Write(rawData, 0, rawData.Length);
stream.Flush();
byte[] rawVerification = new byte[10000];
int count = stream.Read(rawVerification, 0, 10000);
Edit:
is it possible to do this code with webclient?
Edit:
it had an invalid input, the json didn't have the correct data needed

try this:
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create (authserver);
request.Method = "POST";
string postData = "YourJSON";
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes (postData);
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
using(Stream s = request.GetRequestStream ()){
s.Write (byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
}
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse ();
using(var dataStream = response.GetResponseStream ()){
using(StreamReader reader = new StreamReader (dataStream)){
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd ();
}
}
response.Close();
Essentially You shouldn't call getResponse() before you submit your data

Google OAuth2 Bad Request

I am trying to write a YouTube app for windows phone, and I stumbled upon some problems on the authentication side. For some reason the following code is not working properly,
string url = "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token?";
string postData = "code=" + str + "&client_id=*********.apps.googleusercontent.com&client_secret=*******&grant_type=authorization_code";
HttpWebRequest httpWReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
byte[] data = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(postData);
httpWReq.Method = "POST";
httpWReq.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
using (Stream stream =await httpWReq.GetRequestStreamAsync())
stream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
HttpWebResponse response =(HttpWebResponse)(await httpWReq.GetResponseAsync());
string responseString = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd();
I am fairly new to HttpWebRequest so probably I missed something, although I am getting a response:
Bad Request
To be specific it says that grant_type is missing although I am pretty sure that it is not, I did everything according to the documentation. What am I doing wrong ?

This will probably fix it
parameters.Append("code=" + str);
parameters.Append("&client_id=*****.apps.googleusercontent.com");
parameters.Append("&client_secret=*****");
parameters.Append("&redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob:auto");
parameters.Append("&grant_type=authorization_code");
string p_params = parameters.ToString();
byte[] p_data_params = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(p_params);
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token");
request.Accept = "application/json";
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
Stream dataStream = await request.GetRequestStreamAsync();
dataStream.Write(p_data_params, 0, p_data_params.Length);
dataStream.Dispose();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)await request.GetResponseAsync();
Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader readStream = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8);
string result = readStream.ReadToEnd();
Works fine for me.

Having a really hard time getting OAuth2.0 token. Keep getting 400 Bad Request

/*WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(parameters);
var test = client.UploadData("http://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token","POST", data);

request.ContentLength = p_data_params.Length;
Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
dataStream.Write(p_data_params, 0, p_data_params.Length);
dataStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader readStream = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8);
string result = readStream.ReadToEnd();
The only approach that seems to work for me is using HttpWebRequest. I found the answer here: .Net Google OAuth token WebRequest Bad Request Protocol Error If anyone knows of a way to get the Web Client implementation working please let me know! Thanks.

Sequence of HttpWebRequest

I am currently in the process of automating a web interface for administrating users of an FTP.
I am trying to do this with HttpWebRequest, i have one call that logs me on the site and the second call is supose to add a new user for the FTP access.
I have tried my two urls in the browser and they work, they end up creating a user.
string login = "https://www.ftpsite.net/./panel/index.php?txvUsername=myaccount&txvPassword=myPassword&submitButton=Login";
this gets me logged in when i enter it in the browser address bar.
the second call to create a user is as follows.
string createUser = "https://www.ftpSite.net/panel/ftpsites/updatelogin?login_id=&login=toto123&realname=realnametoto&homedir=root&passwd=superpassword11&expdate=01-01-2100&neverExpire=on&quota_value=0&quota_unit=GB&group_id=0&status=on&ftp=on&filelist=on&ftp_download=on&http=on&web_filelist=on&web_download=on&email=";
This creates a user when i enter it in the browser's address bar if it follows the one that logs us in.
My problem is that i am trying to do this using HttpWebRequest and without success. I can get myself logged in but when i try to create the user it seems to return a "bad" error code saying i have created too many users already which isnt the case since i can create more after that call. Here is the code i use with HtttpRequest
_datCookie = new CookieContainer();
HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(login);
httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
httpWebRequest.CookieContainer = _datCookie;
WebResponse response = httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
referer = response.ResponseUri.AbsoluteUri;
Stream requestStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(requestStream);
_datCookie = httpWebRequest.CookieContainer;
response.Close();
httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(createUser);
httpWebRequest.CookieContainer = _datCookie;
httpWebRequest.Referer = referer;
httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
response = httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
requestStream = response.GetResponseStream();
streamReader = new StreamReader(requestStream);
webBrowser.DocumentText = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
response.Close();
What i caught and tried to imitate without success here.

Are you sure they should be POST requests? The URLs seem to have all of the fields in the query-string, which suggests they should be GET requests instead.
Based on the Fiddler screen-shot, you need to make a POST request with the fields in the body, not the query-string:
var cookies = new CookieContainer();
// Request 1 : Login
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://www.ftpsite.net/./panel/index.php");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.CookieContainer = cookies;
string postData = "txvUsername=myaccount&txvPassword=myPassword&submitButton=Login";
byte[] postBytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(postData);
request.ContentLength = postBytes.Length;
using (Stream bod = request.GetRequestStream())
{
body.Write(postBytes, 0, postBytes.Length);
}
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
string referer = response.ResponseUri.AbsoluteUri;
// Request 2 : Create user
request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://www.ftpSite.net/panel/ftpsites/updatelogin");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.CookieContainer = cookies;
postData = "login_id=&login=toto123&realname=realnametoto&homedir=root&passwd=superpassword11&expdate=01-01-2100&neverExpire=on&quota_value=0&quota_unit=GB&group_id=0&status=on&ftp=on&filelist=on&ftp_download=on&http=on&web_filelist=on&web_download=on&email=";
postBytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(postData);
request.ContentLength = postBytes.Length;
using (Stream bod = request.GetRequestStream())
{
body.Write(postBytes, 0, postBytes.Length);
}
response = request.GetResponse();
requestStream = response.GetResponseStream();
streamReader = new StreamReader(requestStream);
webBrowser.DocumentText = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
response.Close();

How to log in to Craigslist using C#

I'm using the following code to log into Craigslist, but haven't succeeded yet.
string formParams = string.Format("inputEmailHandle={0}&inputPassword={1}", "must_chd#yahoo.com", "removed");
//string postData = "inputEmailHandle=must_chd#yahoo.com&inputPassword=removed";
string uri = "https://accounts.craigslist.org/";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
request.KeepAlive = true;
request.ProtocolVersion = HttpVersion.Version10;
request.Method = "POST";
byte[] postBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(formParams);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.ContentLength = postBytes.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(postBytes, 0, postBytes.Length);
requestStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
cookyHeader = response.Headers["Set-cookie"];
string pageSource;
string getUrl = "https://post.craigslist.org/del";
WebRequest getRequest = WebRequest.Create(getUrl);
getRequest.Headers.Add("Cookie", cookyHeader);
WebResponse getResponse = getRequest.GetResponse();
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(getResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
pageSource = sr.ReadToEnd();
}

Use WebTest to record your login process, then generate the code. This will help you to understand what is wrong with YOUR code.
