POSTing data while redirecting to a third-party URL using Response.Redirect()

In ASP.Net Core 2.0, how can I POST data while redirecting to a third-party URL using Response.Redirect()?

Response.Redirect()

Note: I have to POST this data without using the query-string.

Response.Redirect triggers a GET request which means that the only option is using a query string.
Can you trigger the redirection from the client (if any) in order to make a POST request?

You must use object if you want post data without using query string.

[HttpPost]
public IActionResult Search([FromBody] CustomerSearchRequestApiModel request)

if (request == null)

return BadRequest();


return Ok(request);



It is impossible to use Response.Redirect() to send Post request.

Response.Redirect()

Post

For a workaround, you could try HttpClient to send Post request and then return the reponse to the web browser with ContentResult as text/html.

HttpClient

Post

ContentResult

text/html

Here is a demo code:

public async Task<ContentResult> HtmlView()

using (var formDataContent = new MultipartFormDataContent())

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
Article article = new Article ArticleName = "AN" ;

formDataContent.Add(new StringContent("AN", Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"), "ArticleName");
using (HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient())

HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.PostAsync(@"https://localhost:44393/Articles/Create", formDataContent);
return new ContentResult

ContentType = "text/html",
StatusCode = (int)response.StatusCode,
Content = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync()
;






Note

Change the HttpClient part to send the right request to your own third party url with validate parameters.
