Hi,
It’s been a while since I’ve worked with the .Net HttpClient and I’m new to the Discourse API. I’m creating a sandbox/playground project to create users in our Discourse instant using the API via .Net.
However, when I call the API, I get a 200 (OK) response, but no user is created:
class Program
{
public class User
{
public string name {get;set;}
public string email {get;set;}
public string password {get;set;}
public string username {get;set;}
public bool active { get; set; }
// will move out later
public string api_key { get; set; }
public string api_username { get; set; }
}
static void Main()
{
RunAsync().Wait();
}
static async Task RunAsync()
{
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://example.com");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
User u = new User {
name = "test",
email = "test@example.com",
password = "testtesttest1!",
username = "test",
active = true,
api_key = "mysecredtapikey",
api_username = "myadminuser"
};
HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync("/users", u);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
// look at the response (
var x = response;
}
}
The response object has a null location value, which appears to indicate the user was not created.
Since there are no apparent errors and the response is 200 (OK), I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might troubleshoot this problem or know what might be wrong with my code?
Thank you.
