Calling One IAM REST API from VB.NET

Question

Hi All,

I need some help from you.

I have below the PowerShell code and it is working fine.

We have a requirement to call this One IAM rest API from VB.Net code and don't know how to pass all these parameters. Looked on google and tried but always failed.

Does anyone has called REST API from VB.NET code and if so could you please share sample code. Thank you in advance.

$authdata = @{AuthString="Module=DialogUser;User=***;Password=*****"}

$authJson = ConvertTo-Json $authdata -Depth 2

# Login (important, pass the NAME for your session variable in -SessionVariable)

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "http://<Server>/AppServer/auth/apphost" -Body $authJson.ToString() -Method Post -UseDefaultCredentials -Headers @{Accept="application/json"} -SessionVariable wsession

# Sample 1: Load collection using Post method

$body = @{parameters = @("test1284@test.com","98456798","FirstName","LastName","Middle Name","Department name")} | ConvertTo-Json

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "http://<Server>//AppServer/api/script/CCC_CreateDepartment_TPA" -WebSession $wsession -Method PUT -Body $body -ContentType application/json

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "http://<Server>//AppServer/auth/logout" -WebSession $wsession -Method Post

Kind Regards,

The PowerShell code to call the script would look like the following: $authdata = @{AuthString="Module=DialogUser;User=;Password="} $authJson = ConvertTo-Json $authdata -Depth 2 # Login (important, pass the NAME for your session variable in -SessionVariable) Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https:///AppServer/auth/apphost" -Body $authJson.ToString() -Method Post -UseDefaultCredentials -Headers @{Accept="application/json"} -SessionVariable wsession # Script Call $body=@{parameters=@("RequestId","RequestStatus","Description")} | ConvertTo-Json (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https:///AppServer/api/script/" -WebSession $wsession -Method Put -Body $body -ContentType application/json).result And because the code is a little bit complex if you want to call a RestAPI without helper modules like RestSharp, I am unable to help you with pure VB.Net code. But the hint is, that you must save and pass the session object you have created during the auth-call to any subsequent calls. (this is the WSession thing in the PowerShell sample).
