How to use getblocktemplate method with Bitcoinlib Library

I am using bitcoinlib to communicate with bitcoin-qt

This is the code i tried:

 Dim BitcoinService As Services.RpcServices.RpcService.IRpcService = New Services.Coins.Bitcoin.BitcoinService("http://localhost:8332", "Username", "Password", "wallet password", 200)

for getblocktemplate this is the call

   Dim seg As JToken = "{""rules"": [""segwit""]}"

        RichTextBox5.Text = BitcoinService.GetBlockTemplate(seg).PreviousBlockHash

It gives me this error

BitcoinLib.ExceptionHandling.Rpc.RpcInternalServerErrorException

I dont understand what i am doing wrong, it works with other methods, i think it's a json problem

Help is appreciated, thank you

Solution

Try

 Dim seg As JToken = JToken.Parse("{""rules"": [""segwit""]}")

because assigning a string to a JToken doesn't parse the string as json, it just makes a json string that has the given string as its value
