How to post data using HttpClient?

by

You need to use:

await client.PostAsync(uri, content);

Something like that:

var comment = "hello world";
var questionId = 1;

var formContent = new FormUrlEncodedContent(new[]
{
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("comment", comment), 
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("questionId", questionId) 
});

var myHttpClient = new HttpClient();
var response = await myHttpClient.PostAsync(uri.ToString(), formContent);

And if you need to get the response after post, you should use: 

var stringContent = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

Hope it helps 😉
