How do I send a POST request in RestSharp?
c#, rest, restsharp
Solution
So it turns out the parameters were all already serialized in the data string. Whereas I needed to add them to the RestSharp request manually.
foreach (var pair in data)
{
request.AddParameter(pair.Key, pair.Value);
}
where data is a Key/Value pair struct
Problem
I have this code which I am attempting to convert to RestSharp. I have removed the using blocks to condense it for clarity. ``` using System.IO; using System.Net; using RestSharp; string GetResponse(string url,string data) { var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url); request.Method = "POST"; request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; var bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data); request.ContentLength = bytes.Length; request.GetRequestStream().Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length); var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); var stream = response.GetResponseStream(); if (stream == null) return string.Empty; var reader = new StreamReader(stream); return reader.ReadToEnd(); } ``` I tried something to the order of: ``` string GetResponse(string url, string data) { var client = new RestClient(url); var request = new RestRequest("", RestSharp.Method.POST); request.AddParameter("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", data); var response = client.Execute(request); return response.Content; } ``` I can't seem to POST a request using RestSharp, what's the right format to send a POST request in `application/x-form-urlencoded` ?
