I'm trying to get the Authentication token with the following code, however its return error "The remote server returned an error: (405) Method Not Allowed." string url = "https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api/authenticationTokens"; string apiKey = "WXNKRk9vb*****************"; using (var client = new WebClient()) { var uri = new Uri(url); var encoding = new UTF8Encoding(); client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/json"); client.Headers.Add("Accept", "application/json"); client.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + apiKey); string response = encoding.GetString(client.DownloadData(uri)); }

When making POST requests using WebClient, you should try to do it this way: 
using (var client = new WebClient())
            {
            byte[] response =
       client.UploadValues("https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api/authenticationTokens", new NameValueCollection()
       {
           { "Content-Type", "application/json" },
           { "Accept", "application/json" },
           { "Authorization", "Basic " + apiKey}
       });
            string result = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
            Debug.WriteLine("Result: " + result);
            }
Hope it helps!
