How to set withCredentials=true in HttpClient

Question

I want to set withCredentials=true in a C# HttpClient request - how to do this?

var res = await client.GetAsync("https://localhost:44387/api/values/SetCookie");

Answer 1

You can use the HttpClientHandler class and setting its UseDefaultCredentials property to true.

var handler = new HttpClientHandler
{
    UseDefaultCredentials = true,
    // Optionally, you can also set other properties of HttpClientHandler here
};

var client = new HttpClient(handler);
var res = await client.GetAsync("https://localhost:44387/api/values/SetCookie");
