HttpClient Notes

Customed HTTP Request

If some customed headers are required in request, we can use class HttpRequestMessage and HttpClient.SendAsync() to send a http request.

Add Authorization Header

We can set HttpRequestMessage.Headers.Authorization property to ours. For example:

var httpRequestMessage = new HttpRequestMessage();
httpRequestMessage.Method = HttpMethod.Get;
httpRequestMessage.RequestUri = new Uri("http://127.0.0.1/api");
httpRequestMessage.Headers.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Basic", "mytoken");
