When using WebRequest to send a POST, the Authorization header is not sent with the request even though I have manually set the header and set PreAuthenticate to true, eg: webRequest.Headers["Authorization"] = "OAuth oauth_consumer_key=bFPD..."; webRequest.PreAuthenticate = true; Using Fiddler I can see that the Authorization header is not sent. The target site (Twitter) returns a 400 (Bad request) rather than a 401 (Not authorized) which is therefore the incorrect challenge required for WebRequest to send the Authorization data. For information, the returned content is: {"errors":[{"message":

I've got a method that uses a WebRequest to upload a file to a sharepoint 2010 list/folder, using a PUT request, with the Overwrite Header set to T (overwrite). When several files are uploaded (method is called several times), some requests fail with a 409 Conflict HTTP error. I've googled, and it seems the most common reason is trying to affect/update a file that does not exist (like setting the request URL to a path without a file name). However, that is not the case. In case the conflict had something to do with the file already existing, I added code to physically delete the file before

I'm trying to login to a website via my application. What I did: First I figured out how the browser does the authorization process with Fiddler. I examined how the POST request is built and I tried to reconstruct it. The browser sends 4 cookies (Google Analytics) and I tried to set them: CookieContainer gaCookies = new CookieContainer(); gaCookies.Add(new Cookie("__utma", "#########.###########.##########.##########.##########.#")); gaCookies.Add(new Cookie("__utmb", "#########.#.##.##########")); gaCookies.Add(new Cookie("__utmc", "#########")); gaCookies.Add(new Cookie("__utmz", "#########.

I need to get json data from an external domain. I used webrequest to get the response from a website. Here's the code: var request = WebRequest.Create(url); string text; var response = (HttpWebResponse) request.GetResponse(); using (var sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())) { text = sr.ReadToEnd(); } Anyone know why I can't get the json data? You need to explicitly ask for the content type. Add this line: request.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8"; At the appropriate place Some APIs want you to supply the appropriate "Accept" header in the request to get the wanted

This question already has an answer here: What is the quickest way to HTTP GET in Python? 11 answers I am having trouble sending data to a website and getting a response in Python. I have seen similar questions, but none of them seem to accomplish what I am aiming for. This is my C# code I'm trying to port to Python: static void Request(Uri selectedUri) { HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(selectedUri); request.ServicePoint.BindIPEndPointDelegate = BindIPEndPointCallback; request.Method = "GET"; request.Timeout = (int)Timeout.TotalMilliseconds; request.ReadWriteTimeout

I want to make a web request to a page that needs authenticating. How would I go about doing this? I found something that said possibly to use the Credentials property, but I'm not sure how to use it. Assign a new NetworkCredential instance to the Credentials property: webClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("Mehrdad", "Password"); Basic auth example: public void SetBasicAuthHeader(WebRequest req, String userName, String userPassword) { string authInfo = userName + ":" + userPassword; authInfo = Convert.ToBase64String(Encoding.Default.GetBytes(authInfo)); req.Headers["Authorization"] =

I have the following WebClient inside my asp.net mvc web application: using (WebClient wc = new WebClient()) // call the Third Party API to get the account id { string url = currentURL + "resources/" + ResourceID + "/accounts?AUTHTOKEN=" + pmtoken; var json = await wc.DownloadStringTaskAsync(url); } So can anyone advice how I can change it from WebClient to be HttpClient? Hakan Fıstık You can write the following code: string url = currentURL + "resources/" + ResourceID + "/accounts?AUTHTOKEN=" + pmtoken; using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()) { using (HttpResponseMessage response =

I try to test a example of WebRequest APIs , but throw error: "onBeforeRequest" can only be used in extension processes. manifest.json: { "name": "example", "version": "1.0", "permissions": [ "experimental", "http://*/*", "https://*/*" ], "content_scripts": [ { "js": [ "foo.js" ], "matches": [ "http://*/*", "https://*/*" ], "run_at": "document_start" } ] } foo.js is exactly the example 1 Chrome extension functions (which includes the webRequest API) cannot be used in content scripts ( foo.js in your example). If you wish to use webRequest from a content script, you can use the messaging
