Drupal 7 Service module node resources attach_file end point - xamarin

I am implementing a Xamarin Form mobile app to allow post photo to Drupal using service module node resources. http://xxxx.com/{endpoint}/node/4/attach_file
i able to post from POSTMAN with
I tried to implement with c# HttpClient but keep getting response like "401 :Missing required argument field_name"
Please help on my code:
var httpClient = new HttpClient(new NativeMessageHandler());
httpClient.Timeout.Add(new TimeSpan(0, 0, 30));
httpClient.BaseAddress = new Uri(BaseAddress);
var content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
var streamContent = new StreamContent(g_media.GetStream());
streamContent.Headers.ContentDisposition = ContentDispositionHeaderValue.Parse("form-data");
streamContent.Headers.ContentDisposition.Parameters.Add(new NameValueHeaderValue("field_name", "field_receipt_image"));
content.Add(streamContent,"files[file]");
var response = await httpClient.PostAsync("node/4/attach_file", content);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();

I had the same issue and used RestSharp to resolve it. Here is the code I used to upload a file to Drupal:
var restClient = new RestClient("http:XXXXXX/attach_file");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.AddFile("files[file]", fileName);
request.AddParameter("field_name", field);
IRestResponse response = restClient.Execute(request);

Attaching zip file is not working in WEB API, but works via POSTMAN

I have an .net core WEB API method that needs to call another external API (java) which expects .zip file. When try to access the external API via Postman by attaching the file, it is working fine (getting expected response). However when i pass the same parameters via my WEB API code, it is throwing 403-Forbidden error.
Please let me know if i am missing anything....
Thanks in advance!!!
request-header
request-body-file-attached
response-403-error
API code: for connecting to api:
Dictionary<string, string> parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
parameters.Add("pane", "forward");
parameters.Add("forward_path", "/store/execute");
parameters.Add("csrf", "1996fe6b2d0c97a8a0db725a10432d83");
parameters.Add("data_format", "binary");
newContent = new FormUrlEncodedContent(parameters);
MultipartFormDataContent form = new MultipartFormDataContent();
HttpContent con;// = new StringContent("file_name");
//form.Add(con, "file_name");
form.Add(newContent);
var str = new FileStream("D:\\dummy\\xmlstore.zip", FileMode.Open);
con = new StreamContent(str);
con.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue("form-data")
{
Name = "file_name",
FileName = "xmlstore.zip"
};
con.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/zip");
form.Add(con);

client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("text/html"));
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptEncoding.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("gzip"));
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.AcceptEncoding.Add(new StringWithQualityHeaderValue("deflate"));

client.DefaultRequestHeaders.UserAgent.Add(new ProductInfoHeaderValue("user-agent", "1"));
var resp = client.PostAsync("java-api", con).Result;

client.DeleteAsync - include object in body

I have an ASP.NET MVC 5 website - in C# client code I am using HttpClient.PutAsJsonAsync(path, myObject) fine to call a Json API (the API is also mine created in Web API).
client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://mydomain");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
var response = await client.PutAsJsonAsync("api/something", myObj);
I would like to do the same with a Delete verb. However client.DeleteAsync does not allow an object to be passed in the body. (I would like to record the reason for deletion alongside the Id of the item to delete in the URI).
Is there a way to do this?
You'll have to give up a little in terms of convenience since the higher-level DeleteAsync doesn't support a body, but it's still pretty straightforward to do it the "long way":
var request = new HttpRequestMessage {
Method = HttpMethod.Delete,
RequestUri = new Uri("http://mydomain/api/something"),
Content = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(myObj), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json")
};
var response = await client.SendAsync(request);

NativeMessageHandler Giving "Unauthorized" result on PostAsync

I am using ModernHTTPClient in my application to access a Secure ReST Service.
Server is configured with TLS1.2.
Whenever i try to hit the service with valid user credential, i gets the below error.
"Unauthorized"
"System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for
'System.Net.HttpVersion' threw an exception."
Below is the code which i used
NativeMessageHandler handler = new NativeMessageHandler(false, false);
handler.ClientCertificateOptions = ClientCertificateOption.Manual;
handler.EnableUntrustedCertificates();
handler.Credentials = oNwCred;
handler.ClientCertificateOptions = ClientCertificateOption.Automatic;
using (var oClient = new HttpClient(handler))
{
//Set Timeout
oClient.Timeout = new TimeSpan(0, C_TIME_OUT, 0);
oClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
var oContent = new StringContent(szRequestJson, Encoding.UTF8, C_CONTENT_TYPE);
return await oClient.PostAsync(szUrl, oContent);
}
Server is configured with self signed certificate.
I have tried the code from Both PCL and from Droid project as well.
Thank you in advance for your help.

restsharp AddParameter for POST not working on Mac (mono)

Using RestSharp 104.4.0 on Xamarin 4.2.2.
I cannot figure out why RestSharp does not add the parameter to a POST request. I am hitting a REST API that takes both GET and POST.
Not working POST:
var request_post = new RestRequest ("folder/endpoint.php", Method.POST);
request_post.AddParameter("ref", "some/value");
response = client.Execute(request_post);
Console.WriteLine (response.Content);
Error is saying that ref parameter is required.
Working GET:
var request_get = new RestRequest ("folder/endpoint.php", Method.GET);
request_get.AddParameter("ref", "some/value");
response = client.Execute(request_get);
Console.WriteLine (response.Content);
Update:
It may be adding the parameter but I need to add the parameters as a form.
Thanks, Matt.
// POST request.
//
// This method does not work!
// var request_post = new RestRequest ("folder/endpoint.php", Method.POST);
// request_post.AddParameter("ref", "some/value");
//
// This method does work.
var endpoint = String.Format("folder/endpoint.php?{0}={1}",
"ref", "some/value");
var request_post = new RestRequest (endpoint, Method.POST);
response = client.Execute(request_post);
// Print out headers.
foreach (var header in response.Headers){
Console.WriteLine(header);
}
// Print response.
Console.WriteLine(response.Content)

wp7 - twitter photo upload

We are trying to upload image to Twitter via silverlight code in WP7. We are able to post the message but not the image.
We tried all including download of their library but not getting the hint.
In following link,
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/post/statuses/update_with_media
there is one point which we are not able to set.
"Unlike POST statuses/update, this method expects raw multipart data. Your POST request's Content-Type should be set to multipart/form-data with the media[] parameter "
I am not getting it how to put it.
Can anyone please guide me or provide sample for image upload?
If your photo is called LoadedPhoto, you could create a memory stream from it
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
LoadedPhoto.SaveJpeg(ms, LoadedPhoto.PixelWidth, LoadedPhoto.PixelHeight, 0, 100);
Create OAuthCredentials object according to the authentication details you have acquired
var credentials = new OAuthCredentials
{
Type = OAuthType.ProtectedResource,
SignatureMethod = OAuthSignatureMethod.HmacSha1,
ParameterHandling = OAuthParameterHandling.HttpAuthorizationHeader,
ConsumerKey = Common.TwitterSettings.ConsumerKey,
ConsumerSecret = Common.TwitterSettings.ConsumerKeySecret,
Token = file.AccessToken,
TokenSecret = file.AccessTokenSecret,
Version = "1.0"
};
Create a RestClient and a RestRequest
var restClient = new RestClient
{
Authority = "https://upload.twitter.com"
};
var restRequest = new RestRequest
{
Credentials = credentials,
Path = "/1/statuses/update_with_media.xml",
Method = Hammock.Web.WebMethod.Post
};
Set the stream position to 0
ms.Position = 0;
Add fields to RestRequest
restRequest.AddField("status", message);
restRequest.AddFile("media[]", "ScreenShot.png", ms, "image/jpeg");
And then begin request
restClient.BeginRequest(restRequest, callback);
callback is a callback method for the request.
Taken from my blog post, see there for more details if you're interested.
