Postasync Json C#

Question

I have the Following class set:

public class Ticket
{
    public string name
    public string content
    public int itilcategories_id
}

And the following code sample:

static HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://stgsd.primaverabss.com/");
            client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
            client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(
                new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

 ticket.name = "TESTE";
 ticket.content = "teste";
 ticket.itilcategories_id = 1

 HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsync("apirest.php/Ticket/", XXXXXXXXX );

My goal is to replace the XXXXXXX that are in Postasync so that in its place you pass the information of the Ticket and when sending to the respective link the content is as follows:

{"input":[{"name": "TESTE", "content": "teste", "itilcategories_id":"1"}]}

Any ideas? Any questions, let us know!!

Answer 1

To reproduce the presented model, you need to create an object that has an attribute called input and that receives an array or list of Tickets. Then you need to serialize this object in a json and pass it as a StringContent() (adding the necessary headers) to your method PostAsync().

Follow an example:

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://stgsd.primaverabss.com/");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(
    new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

var ticket = new Ticket();
ticket.name = "TESTE";
ticket.content = "teste";
ticket.itilcategories_id = 1;

List<Ticket> tickets = new List<Ticket>();
tickets.Add(ticket);

var parametro = new
{
    input = tickets.ToArray()
};            

var jsonContent = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(parametro); 
var contentString = new StringContent(jsonContent, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
contentString.Headers.ContentType = new 
MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json"); 
contentString.Headers.Add("Session-Token", session_token); 


HttpResponseMessage response = await Client.PostAsync("apirest.php/Ticket/", contentString);
