I want to create/modify an issue on redmine using the PUT/POST methods of restSharp.
I cannot find valuable information about xml PUT/POST using Rest sharp. I tried various methods from restsharp.org like Addbody("test", "subject"); , IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request); but there is no change in Redmine. What am I doing wrong?
POST gives a "Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed." message.
PUT gives a "Only get, post, and delete requests are allowed." message.
My Code
RestClient client = new RestClient(_baseUrl);
client.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator(_user, _password);
RestRequest request = new RestRequest("issues/{id}.xml", Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("subject", "Testint POST");
request.AddUrlSegment("id", "5");
var response = client.Execute(request);
The problem was in the serialization. My Issue class contains object of various other classes which was causing a problem in the serialization.
This is how we did it:
RestRequest request = new RestRequest("issues/{id}.xml", Method.PUT);
request.AddParameter("id", ticket.id, ParameterType.UrlSegment);
request.XmlSerializer = new RedmineXmlSerializer();
request.AddBody(ticket);
RestClient client = new RestClient(_baseUrl);
client.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator(_user, _password);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Your code looks ok to me, I'm unsure if you need this but we added this header when using RestSharp for json against a WebAPI host:
request.AddHeader("Accept", "application/xml");

I am trying to send Header and Request in post method using RestClient library but getting error:
Endpoint not found.
var client = new RestClient("http://xxxxxxxxxx/UIService.svc/xxxxxxxxx/xxxxx");
var request = new RestRequest();
request.Method = Method.POST;
request.AddHeader("Authentication", jsonHeadEncrpt);
// request.AddHeader("Accept", "application/json");
request.Parameters.Clear();
request.AddParameter("application/json", JsonReqEncrpt, ParameterType.RequestBody);
var responsed = client.Execute(request);
Response :Endpoint not found. Please see the service help page for constructing valid requests to the service
Guys Found the solution need to add request.Resource where need to assign the endpoint function..Now it is working fine
I have a C# REST Web API and I have some code like this that makes a request to an endpoint. Some of the data that I want to pass along is an object of my own type and since it is a complex object, I would like to pass it using POST.
RestClient client = new RestClient(Constants.Endpoints.serviceEndPoint)
{
Timeout = 1000
};
string requestResource = Constants.Endpoints.apiEndPoint;
RestRequest request = new RestRequest(requestResource, Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("Authorization", $"Bearer {accessToken}", ParameterType.HttpHeader);
request.AddHeader("Accept", "application/json");
request.AddParameter("id", id, ParameterType.UrlSegment);
request.AddParameter("text/json", objectIWantToSerialize, ParameterType.RequestBody);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
On the other side, I am trying to read the object itself with some code like this
var provider = new MultipartMemoryStreamProvider();
await Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(provider);
foreach (var content in provider.Contents)
{
// what should I do here to read the content as a JSON
// and then transform it as the object it used to be before the call?
}
I tried to do await content.ReadAsJsonAsync< MyType>(); but also tried await content.ReadAsStringAsync(); and none of these worked. Am I doing something wrong at the time I execute in the client? Or is it something that I am doing on the other side while reading the content?
Instead of this line:
request.AddParameter("text/json", objectIWantToSerialize, ParameterType.RequestBody);
You should use the .AddBody(object) method.
So you're code would look like this:
RestRequest request = new RestRequest(requestResource, Method.POST);
//add other headers as needed
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
request.AddBody(objectIWantToSerialize);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
On the server, if you're using MVC/WebAPI, you can just put the C# type as the input and ASP.NET will deserialize it for you. If not, can you provide more context about how you're receiving the request?
This is the (modified) snippet that Postman gives for successful call to my page.
var client = new RestClient("http://sub.example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/users/me");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("authorization", "Basic anVyYTp3MmZacmo2eGtBOHJsRWrt");
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
But when placed in my c# app it returns 403 forbidden, while Postman makes it and recieves 200.
The same thing happens when I use httpclient in my app (403).
Use RestClient.Authenticator instead:
var client = new RestClient("http://sub.example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/users/me")
{
Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("User", "Pass")
};
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Edit:
Since the issue (as mentioned in the comments) is the fact that RestSharp doesn't flow the authentication through redirects, I'd suggest going with a combination of HttpClient with a HttpClientHandler where you set the authentication to flow.
[Solution]
Use the below line for the header
Headers.Add("User-Agent: Other");
I am using RestSharp api to post text/images into tumblr. I have this piece of code which I had used to post data into tumblr. It used to post data successfully into tumblr
var restClient = new RestClient("http://tumblr.com/api/write");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
request.AddParameter("email", "xxxxx#abc.com");
request.AddParameter("password", "whatever");
request.AddParameter("type", "regular");
request.AddParameter("title", "My post to tumblr");
request.AddParameter("body", "<b>I am now on tumblr");
IRestResponse response = restClient.Execute(request);
But now when I am testing it, it gets executed but posts nothing to tumblr. What am I missing here ?
i am trying to post some json to jboss services. using restSharp.. my code is as follows.
RestClient client = new RestClient(baseURL);
RestRequest authenticationrequest = new RestRequest();
authenticationrequest.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
authenticationrequest.Method = Method.POST;
authenticationrequest.AddParameter("text/json", authenticationrequest.JsonSerializer.Serialize(prequestObj), ParameterType.RequestBody);
and also tried this one
RestClient client = new RestClient(baseURL);
RestRequest authenticationrequest = new RestRequest();
authenticationrequest.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json;
authenticationrequest.Method = Method.POST; authenticationrequest.AddBody(authenticationrequest.JsonSerializer.Serialize(prequestObj));
but in both cases my server is giving me error that json is not in correct format
Try using JsonHelper to prepare your json as the following
string jsonToSend = JsonHelper.ToJson(prequestObj);
and then
authenticationrequest.AddParameter("application/json; charset=utf-8", jsonToSend, ParameterType.RequestBody);
I have found what was going wrong...
i am using RestSharp in windows metro Style, so downloaded source code and make some modifications... so that modifications in the function PutPostInternalAsync i just added this modifications
httpContent = new StringContent(Parameters[0].Value.ToString(), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
and it solve the problem....
Parameters[0].Value.ToString() instead of this you can write a method which can return the serialize json object. (as string).
