Add AnswerYes, it is possible to insert arrays into HTTP request URIs using C#.
One way to do this is to convert the array into a query string and append it to the URI. The query string is a part of the URI that contains key-value pairs separated by an equals sign (=) and the pairs are separated by an ampersand (&) character. Here is an example of how to construct a URI with an array as a query string using C#:
int[] numbers = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 }; string queryString = string.Join("&", numbers.Select(x => "numbers=" + x.ToString())); string uri = "http://example.com/api?"+queryString;
In this example, the numbers
array is converted to a query string by using the Select
method to iterate over each element of the array and generate a string representation of it in the format “numbers=x”, where x is the element’s value. The resulting array of strings is then joined into a single string with the ampersand character separating the key-value pairs. Finally, the query string is appended to the base URI using the question mark (?) character.
This will result in a URI that looks like this:
http://example.com/api?numbers=1&numbers=2&numbers=3&numbers=4&numbers=5
Note that the query string can be customized to fit the needs of your specific API endpoint.
