Add a GET parameter to a POST request with RestSharp

Question

I want to make a POST request to a URL like this:

http://localhost/resource?auth_token=1234

And I want to send JSON in the body. My code looks something like this:

var client = new RestClient("http://localhost");
var request = new RestRequest("resource", Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("auth_token", "1234");    
request.AddBody(json);
var response = client.Execute(request);

How can I set the auth_token parameter to be a GET parameter and make the request as POST?

Answer 1

The current version of RestSharp has a short method that makes use of a template:

var request = new RestRequest("resource?auth_token={token}", Method.POST);
request.AddUrlSegment("token", "1234");

Alternatively, you can add a parameter without a template:

var request = new RestRequest("resource", Method.POST);
request.AddQueryParameter("auth_token", "1234); 

or

var request = new RestRequest("resource", Method.POST);
request.AddParameter("auth_token", "1234", ParameterType.QueryString);
