C# : How to post more than PDF file to eSignLive (new interface)
Monday, August 22, 2016 at 05:35pmHi eSignLive Team,
I am working on an integration between eSign Live and Ebix Inc. Life eApp and in this integration we require to perform in person signature ceremony , and I created a console application in .Net C# and having an issue (Bad Request 400 and Can not deserialize instance of java.util.ArrayList ) while sending multiple PDFs to eSignLive and didn't get the package Id however it worked fine for a single PDF file.
Here is the require details which you need to troubleshot this issue:
1. URL : "https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api" where I am posting request for package creation.
2. Already setup an account at eSign Live new interface and using api key while making a request.
3. .Net console application code.
string url = "https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api";
string jsonFilePath = Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, "Files", "RNAJson.txt"); /* Load json string from a file.*/
string jsonString = File.ReadAllText(jsonFilePath);
string jsontoken = "";
string jsonpackageId = "";
StringContent jsonContent = new StringContent(jsonString, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
string pdfFilename1 = "1964-Application.pdf";
string pdfFilepath1 = Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, "Files", pdfFilename1);
string pdfFilename2 = "1964-Application-RNAC-AR.pdf";
string pdfFilepath2 = Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, "Files", pdfFilename2);
MultipartFormDataContent form = new MultipartFormDataContent();
/*Add first PDF file in Data content*/
byte[] fileByteArray1 = File.ReadAllBytes(pdfFilepath1);
ByteArrayContent content1 = new ByteArrayContent(fileByteArray1);
content1.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue("form-data");
content1.Headers.ContentDisposition.Name = "\"file\"";
content1.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName = "\"" + pdfFilename1 + "\"";
content1.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/pdf");
form.Add(content1);
/*Add second PDF file in Data content*/
byte[] fileByteArray2 = File.ReadAllBytes(pdfFilepath2);
ByteArrayContent content2 = new ByteArrayContent(fileByteArray2);
content2.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue("form-data");
content2.Headers.ContentDisposition.Name = "\"file\"";
content2.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName = "\"" + pdfFilename2 + "\"";
content2.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/pdf");
form.Add(content2);
form.Add(jsonContent, "\"payload\"");
var boundaryValue = form.Headers.ContentType.Parameters.FirstOrDefault(p => p.Name == "boundary");
boundaryValue.Value = boundaryValue.Value.Replace("\"", String.Empty);
try
{
HttpClient myClient = new HttpClient();
myClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Basic", apiKey);
myClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept", "application/json");
var response = myClient.PostAsync(new Uri(url) + "/packages/", form).Result;
jsonpackageId = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
JavaScriptSerializer jsSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
eSignPackageID PackageID = jsSerializer.Deserialize(jsonpackageId);
using (var client = new WebClient())
{
byte[] res =
client.UploadValues("https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api/authenticationTokens", new NameValueCollection()
{
{ "Content-Type", "application/json" },
{ "Accept", "application/json" },
{ "Authorization", "Basic " + apiKey}
});
jsontoken = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(res);
jsSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
eSignTokenID TokenID = jsSerializer.Deserialize(jsontoken);
Console.WriteLine("https://sandbox.esignlive.com" + "/auth?authenticationToken=" + TokenID.value + "&target=https://sandbox.esignlive.com/a/transaction/" + PackageID.id + "/sign");
}
Console.ReadKey();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("Error : {0}", ex.Message);
}
