Get Response using HttpWebRequest class with Json request and Basic Authorization

In this article,  I am explaining, How to get a response using HttpWebRequest Class.

Below is Sample Sode

 private string GetResponse()

  {

    ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;

    string sCompleteRequest = apiUrl + "/payments/v1/sessions";

    HttpWebRequest oHttpWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(sCompleteRequest) as HttpWebRequest;

    oHttpWebRequest.Method = "POST";

    oHttpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";

    string sCredential = "username:password";//pass credential here

   

    byte[] bData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sCredential);

    string sAuthorization = Convert.ToBase64String(bData);

 

    oHttpWebRequest.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + sAuthorization);

    Byte[] oRequestByte = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(GetStringJson().ToString());

    Stream oRequestStream = oHttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream();

    oRequestStream.Write(oRequestByte, 0, oRequestByte.Length);

    oRequestStream.Close();

 

    string sCompleteResponse = string.Empty;

    using (HttpWebResponse oHttpWebResponse = oHttpWebRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)

    {

      if (oHttpWebResponse.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)

      {

        Stream oStream = oHttpWebResponse.GetResponseStream();

        StreamReader oStreamReader = new StreamReader(oStream);

        sCompleteResponse = oStreamReader.ReadToEnd();

      }

    }

    // Get values from response

    JObject oJObject = JObject.Parse(sCompleteResponse);

    JToken oJToken = oJObject["order"];

 

    int iOrderId = Numericcl.GetIntValue(oJToken["id"]);

    string sStatus = Stringcl.GetValue(oJToken["status"]);

    string sOldStatus = Stringcl.GetValue(oJToken["old_status"]);

    string sDescription = Stringcl.GetValue(oJToken["description"]);

 

    // another way  Get values from response

    m_sClientToken = oJObject.SelectToken("client_token").Value<string>();

 

    iOrderId = oJObject.SelectToken("order.id").Value<int>();

    decimal dDayTemp = oJObject.SelectToken("list[0].temp.day").Value<decimal>();

 

    return sCompleteResponse;

  }
