Reading FromUri and FromBody at the same time

Question

I have a new method in web api

[HttpPost] public ApiResponse PushMessage( [FromUri] string x, [FromUri] string y, [FromBody] Request Request) 

where request class is like

public class Request {     public string Message { get; set; }     public bool TestingMode { get; set; } } 

I'm making a query to localhost/Pusher/PushMessage?x=foo&y=bar with PostBody:

{ Message: "foobar" , TestingMode:true } 

Am i missing something?

Answer 1

A post body is typically a URI string like this:

Message=foobar&TestingMode=true 

You have to make sure that the HTTP header contains

Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded 

EDIT: Because it's still not working, I created a full example myself.
It prints the correct data.
I also used .NET 4.5 RC.

// server-side public class ValuesController : ApiController {     [HttpPost]     public string PushMessage([FromUri] string x, [FromUri] string y, [FromBody] Person p) {         return p.ToString();     } }  public class Person {     public string Name { get; set; }     public int Age { get; set; }      public override string ToString() {         return this.Name + ": " + this.Age;     } }  // client-side public class Program {     private static readonly string URL = "http://localhost:6299/api/values/PushMessage?x=asd&y=qwe";      public static void Main(string[] args) {         NameValueCollection data = new NameValueCollection();         data.Add("Name", "Johannes");         data.Add("Age", "24");          WebClient client = new WebClient();         client.UploadValuesCompleted += UploadValuesCompleted;         client.Headers["Content-Type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";         Task t = client.UploadValuesTaskAsync(new Uri(URL), "POST", data);         t.Wait();     }      private static void UploadValuesCompleted(object sender, UploadValuesCompletedEventArgs e) {         Console.WriteLine(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(e.Result));     } }
