Creating POST Requests

Now you are probaly wondering how using Unirest to creat requests for the Text Summarization API in .Net. Let's start with the previous json rquest body example:


{
    "url": "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_summarization",
    "text": "",
    "sentnum": 8
}

The request created with Unirest .Net library like this:


HttpResponse response = Unirest.post("https://textanalysis-text-summarization.p.mashape.com/text-summarizer")
    .header("X-Mashape-Authorization", "Your Mashape API Key")
    .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
    .body("{\"url\":\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Automatic_summarization\",\"text\":\"\",\"sentnum\":8}")
    .asJson();

Here the Mashape API Key you can find in your Mashape account dashboard, copy it and replace it, now it's time to enjoy our Text Summarization API for your .Net Projects.
