I'm brand new to restsharp and somewhat new to c# I am trying to use restsharp to access an api.
With powershell I can use.
$ClientCredsPlainText = $ClientID + ":" + $ClientSecret
$ClientCredsBase64 = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($ClientCredsPlainText))
$AuthHeader = @{"Content-Type" = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
"accept" = 'application/json'
"authorization" = "Basic $ClientCredsBase64" }
$AuthAPI = @{"endpoint" = 'https://foo.bar.com/api/'
"url" = '/now/table/cmdb_ci_server?u_owner_group=' }
$AuthBody = @{"grant_type" = 'password'
"username" = $SessionUser
"password" = $SessionPassword }
$finalresult=@()
$mdsownergroup=@('foo','bar','foofoo','barbar')
foreach ($item in $mdsownergroup) {
$cmdburi = $AuthAPI.endpoint + $AuthAPI.url + $item
$cmdbrequest = Invoke-RestMethod -Method GET -Uri $cmdburi -Headers $AuthHeader -Body $AuthBody
$finalresult+=$cmdbrequest.result
}
$cmdbrequest.result
I am trying the same thing in c# with restsharp and postman suggests the following should work.
var client = new RestClient("https://foo.bar.com/api/");
client.Timeout = -1;
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("X-IBM-Client-Id", "xxxxxx");
request.AddHeader("Authorization", "[{\"key\":\"\",\"value\":\"xxxxxx",\"description\":\"\",\"type\":\"text\",\"enabled\":true}]");
request.AddHeader("Authorization", "Basic xxxx");
request.AddHeader("Cookie", "JSESSIONID=xxxxx glide_user_route=glide.xxxx glide_session_store=xxxx; BIGipServerpool_foo=209737994.35390.0000");
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);
Using this I receive:
System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send. ---> System.IO.IOException: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.
Actually after reviewing with another dev it turns out I needed to use basic auth and remove the username and password. That is I over complicated by passing both client id and secret as well as username and password.
