I am attempting to work with a REST API using RestSharp and C#. The documentation for the API that I am using gives a sample XML request:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <messages> <accountreference>EX0000000</accountreference> <from>07700900654</from> <message> <to>07700900123</to> <type>SMS</type> <body>Hello Mr Sands.</body> </message> <message> <to>07700900124</to> <type>SMS</type> <body>Hello Mr Mayo.</body> </message> </messages> I am struggling to understand how to build the request in the format that they want (multiple elements called "message")
I have created these classes for RestSharp to serialize:
public class messages { public string accountreference { get; set; } public string from { get; set; } public message message { get; set; } } public class message { public string to { get; set; } public string body { get; set; } } And here is my RestSharp code:
var client = new RestClient("http://api.url.com/v1.0") { Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator( UserName, Password) }; var request = new RestRequest("theresource", Method.POST) { RequestFormat = DataFormat.Xml }; request.AddBody( new messages { accountreference = Configuration.AccountReference, from = Configuration.From, message = new message { to = Configuration.Message.To, body = Configuration.Message.Body } }); var response = client.Execute(request); This works great when I have only 1 message element, but I don't know how to create multiple message elements without having them nested in an array, which doesn't work with the API.
