Access Raw Request Body

Question

I\'m trying to access a request\'s raw input body/stream in ASP.net 5. In the past, I was able to reset the position of the input stream to 0 and read it into a memory strea

Answer 1

You need to call Request.EnableRewind() to allow the stream to be rewound so you can read it.

string bodyAsString;
Request.EnableRewind();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(Request.Body, Encoding.UTF8))
{
    bodyAsString = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}
