cockies is null when HttpWebResponse in formauthentication

I have an application where I used signalr. and formAuthentication. I am trying to connect hub class from WCF service. IN WCF service code is as bellow:
Public Class Demo
{
public Demo()
{
var connection = new HubConnection("http://localhost:47315/")
{
CookieContainer = new CookieContainer()
};
connection.CookieContainer.Add(GetAuthCookie("user1", "pass"));
chatHubProxy = connection.CreateHubProxy("servicesSatatuseHub");
connection.Start().Wait();
}
private static System.Net.Cookie GetAuthCookie(string user, string pass)
{
//var http = WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:47315/module/account/login.aspx") as HttpWebRequest;
var http = WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:47315//module/account/login.aspx") as HttpWebRequest;
http.AllowAutoRedirect = false;
http.Method = "POST";
http.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
http.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
//var postData = "UserName=" + user + "&Password=" + pass + "";
var postData = "UserName=" + user + "&Password=" + pass + "";
byte[] dataBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData);
http.ContentLength = dataBytes.Length;
using (var postStream = http.GetRequestStream())
{
postStream.Write(dataBytes, 0, dataBytes.Length);
}
System.Net.Cookie authCookie;
using (var response = http.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
{
authCookie = response.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];//authCookie = null
}
httpResponse.Close();
return cookie;
}
}
Every thing is fine but Cookie is null on this code
authCookie = <p>response.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];//authCookie = null
Due to cookie null hubconnection is fail.
Thanks in advance

Linked In API (auth token (oauth2)) c#.net

I wonder if someone can give me some pointers on using the linked in API. I thought I had it sussed but for some reason when trying to get the auth_token I just get http 400 Bad Request.
My code, simply is:
public string redirectUrl = URLTOREDIRECT;
public String apiKey = APIKEY;
public String apiSecret = APISECRET;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
if (Request.QueryString["code"] != null)
{
VerifyAuthentication(Request.QueryString["code"]);
}
}
}
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Redirect("https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=apiKey&scope=rw_company_admin&state=DCEEFWF45453sdffef424&redirect_uri=" + HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(redirectUrl));
}
public String VerifyAuthentication(string code)
{
string authUrl = "https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/accessToken";
var sign = "grant_type=authorization_code" + "&code=" + code + "&redirect_uri=" + HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(redirectUrl) + "&client_id=" + _consumerkey + "&client_secret=" + _consumerSecret;
// var postData = String.Format("grant_type=authorization_code&code={0}&redirect_uri={1}&client_id={2}&client_secret={3}", code, HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(redirectUrl), apiKey, apiSecret);
HttpWebRequest webRequest = WebRequest.Create(authUrl + "?" + sign) as HttpWebRequest;
webRequest.Method = "POST";
//This "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; line is important
webRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
webRequest.ContentLength = sign.Length;
StreamWriter requestWriter = new StreamWriter(webRequest.GetRequestStream());
requestWriter.Write(sign);
requestWriter.Close();
StreamReader responseReader = new StreamReader(webRequest.GetResponse().GetResponseStream());
return responseReader.ReadToEnd().ToString() ;
}
The code is all in the same page for testing purposes and is the same page as the redirectUrl.
Really stumped, tried all variations.
First bit clearly works as I get directed to linked in to allow app. The second part getting the auth token fails.

After much head scratching, eureka moment - did not need to send the info in the request.
string authUrl = "https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/accessToken";
var sign = "grant_type=authorization_code&code=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(code) + "&redirect_uri=" + HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(redirectUrl) + "&client_id=" + apiKey + "&client_secret=" + apiSecret;
//byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sign);
HttpWebRequest webRequest = WebRequest.Create(authUrl + "?" + sign) as HttpWebRequest;
webRequest.Method = "POST";
webRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
Stream dataStream = webRequest.GetRequestStream();
String postData = String.Empty;
byte[] postArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(postData);
dataStream.Write(postArray, 0, postArray.Length);
dataStream.Close();
WebResponse response = webRequest.GetResponse();
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader responseReader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
String returnVal = responseReader.ReadToEnd().ToString();
responseReader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();
return returnVal;

How do I reissue a webrequest? Must I recreate Webclient?

The following code gets stuck in a while loop when an exception is encountered. This is because GetResponse is caching the data.
According to fiddler, no data after the first request is issued.
Is it a best practice to recreate the webclient to solve the "refresh" issue I'm having?
private static ReportStatusEnum GetReportStatus(string domain, string oAuthKey, long permissionReportID)
{
string target = string.Format("https://{0}.egnyte.com/pubapi/v1/audit/jobs/{1}", domain, permissionReportID);
var client = new WebClient();
string result ="";
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(target);
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + oAuthKey);
request.AllowAutoRedirect = false;
bool callComplete = false;
while (callComplete != true)
{
try
{
using (var response = request.GetResponse())
{
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
result = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
JToken result2 = JObject.Parse(result);
var statusResult = result2.SelectToken("status");
ReportStatusEnum ret = ReportStatusEnum.error;
Enum.TryParse<ReportStatusEnum>(statusResult.ToString(), out ret);
Console.WriteLine("The returned variable is:" + ret);
callComplete = true;
return ret;
}
catch (System.Net.WebException e)
{
if (e.Response != null)
if (e.Response.ContentLength > 0)
{
if (e.Response.Headers["X-Mashery-Error-Code"] == "ERR_403_DEVELOPER_OVER_QPS")
{
Thread.Sleep(60000); Console.Write("*QPS HIT*");
}
}
}
}
return ReportStatusEnum.error;
}

No. HttpWebRequests are not reusable.
Just move the creation of your WebRequest into the body of your loop:
string result ="";
bool callComplete = false;
while (callComplete != true)
{
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(target);
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + oAuthKey);
request.AllowAutoRedirect = false;
//...

oauth/token returns empty body

I am encountering a problem getting the access_token in client application using oauth.
The returned response has empty body though in API I can see the response is not empty.
tokenresponse = {
"access_token":"[ACCESSTOKENVALUE]",
"token_type":"bearer",
"expires_in":"1200",
"refresh_token":"[REFRESHTOKENVALUE]",
"scope":"[SCOPEVALUE]"
}
The method from API that returns the token http://api.sample.com/OAuth/Token:
public ActionResult Token()
{
OutgoingWebResponse response =
this.AuthorizationServer.HandleTokenRequest(this.Request);
string tokenresponse = string.Format("Token({0})", response!=null?response.Body:""));
return response.AsActionResult();
}
The client method that requests the token is:
public string GetAuthorizationToken(string code)
{
string Url = ServerPath + "OAuth/Token";
string redirect_uri_encode = UrlEncode(ClientPath);
string param = string.Format("code={0}&client_id={1}&client_secret={2}&redirect_uri={3}&grant_type=authorization_code",code, ClientId, ClientSecret, redirect_uri_encode);
HttpWebRequest request = HttpWebRequest.Create(Url) as HttpWebRequest;
string result = null;
request.Method = "POST";
request.KeepAlive = true;
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Timeout = 10000;
request.Headers.Remove(HttpRequestHeader.Cookie);
var bs = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(param);
using (Stream reqStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
reqStream.Write(bs, 0, bs.Length);
}
using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())
{
var sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
result = sr.ReadToEnd();
sr.Close();
}
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(result))
{
TokenData tokendata = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<TokenData>(result);
return UpdateAuthorizotionFromToken(tokendata);
}
return null;
}
The result variable is empty.
Please let me know if you have any idea what could cause this. Initially I assumed is because of the cookies so I tried to remove them from request.
Thanks in advance.

Dear just create webclient using following code and you will get json info in tokeninfo.I used it and simply its working perfect.
WebClient client = new WebClient();
string postData = "client_id=" + ""
+ "&client_secret=" + ""
+ "&grant_type=password&username=" + "" //your username
+ "&password=" + "";//your password :)
string soundCloudTokenRes = "https://api.soundcloud.com/oauth2/token";
string tokenInfo = client.UploadString(soundCloudTokenRes, postData);
You can then use substring that contains only token from tokeninfo.
To upload tracks on sound cloud.
private void TestSoundCloudupload()
{
System.Net.ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false;
var request = WebRequest.Create("https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks") as HttpWebRequest;
//some default headers
request.Accept = "*/*";
request.Headers.Add("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3");
request.Headers.Add("Accept-Encoding", "gzip,deflate,sdch");
request.Headers.Add("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.8,ru;q=0.6");
//file array
var files = new UploadFile[] { new UploadFile(Server.MapPath("Downloads//0.mp3"), "track[asset_data]", "application/octet-stream") };
//other form data
var form = new NameValueCollection();
form.Add("track[title]", "Some title");
form.Add("track[sharing]", "public");
form.Add("oauth_token", "");
form.Add("format", "json");
form.Add("Filename", "0.mp3");
form.Add("Upload", "Submit Query");
try
{
using (var response = HttpUploadHelper.Upload(request, files, form))
{
using (var reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
Response.Write(reader.ReadToEnd());
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Response.Write(ex.ToString());

Box-api file upload timeout

I have been fighting with this upload problem for a couple of days and searched the forum for a good answer but have not seen it yet. I am using asp.net and I am currently receiving a timeout when I try to post a file to upload. I have taken the MultipartWebRequest class from the V1 C# Api and changed it(i believe to be correctly but it may be my problem) to work with my program.
public sealed class MultipartWebRequest
{
public string AcceptCharset { get; set; }
public string AcceptEncoding { get; set; }
public string Url { get; set; }
public string Boundary { get; set; }

UploadableFile file = new UploadableFile(fileUpload.FileName, text, ".txt");
UploadableFile[] files = new UploadableFile[1];
files[0] = new UploadableFile(fileUpload.FileName, text, ".txt"); ;

As you can see I have tried all of the different upload urls that I have found around the site. And with all the different ones, not sure exactly which one to use, but doc appears to be the latest "most" correct one? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I am fairly new (but understand) to post requests in C#, but VERY new (never done one) to multipart forms in C# (or really anywhere).

The current recommended URL for the API (including file uploads) appears to now be https://api.box.com/2.0. Have you tried using that base URL?
