I am attempting to POST to a Web API using the HttpClient. When I put a breakpoint in the Save method of the Web API the [FromBody] Product is null. This means that something is wrong with the way I am posting the product over to the Web API. Can someone please take a look at the below code and see where I might be going wrong. I am assuming it is something to do with headers and content types.
POST call from a client repository to the Web API which should pass the product object through as JSON:
public async Task<Product> SaveProduct(Product product)
{
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:99999/");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
StringContent content = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(product));
// HTTP POST
HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsync("api/products/save", content);
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
string data = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
product = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Product>(data);
}
}
return product;
}
Web API Controller Method:
[HttpPost]
[Route("save")]
public IActionResult Save([FromBody]Product product)
{
if (customer == null)
{
return HttpBadRequest();
}
_manager.SaveCustomer(product);
return CreatedAtRoute("Get", new { controller = "Product", id = product.Id }, product);
}
[FromBody] Product product parameter ends up being null.
