How to Send(Post) object Data from c# project to .net core API?-CodePudding

I want to send an object (DataSet) From the windows application to the .netcore API

something like this (Windows Application side)

public string submitRequest(Dataset request)
        {
            .
            .
            .
            using (client)
            {

                client.Headers["Content-Type"] = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
                byte[] result = client.UploadValues(Url, "POST", request);
                return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(result);


            }
        }

(.netcore API)

public string submitRequest( values)
        {
            // processing values
        }

I try to convert to json and try NameValueCollection but no result.

CodePudding user response：

It was simple

- On the client side

Create new object :

Class1 SentClass1 = new Class1 ();

Then serialize the object :

string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(SentClass1);

Then send the JSON (UploadString) using WebClient

using (WebClient client = new WebClient()){
       client.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType]="application/json";
       response = client.UploadString("ourUrl/SubmitRequest", json);
}

On the other hand - On the Server Side

[HttpPost]
[Route("SubmitRequest")]

public void SubmitRequest(Class2 recievedClass){
      return recievedClass.processing()
}

This automatically maps data from (JSON converted from Class1) to Class2 if they have the names of the same attributes if not I can use an auto mapper.
