SCENARIO:
First of all, consider that I am using a class HttpClient, not WebRequest. I know there are many related questions here, but all the answers are for WebRequest.
I made a Web Api application that set the following header in this way to download the .txt file:
resp.Content = new StringContent(result, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, "text/plain");
resp.Content.Headers.ContentDisposition = new System.Net.Http.Headers.ContentDispositionHeaderValue("attachment")
{
FileName = _datacontext.GetAppConfig("814FileNameHeader") + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd") + ".txt"
};
resp.Content.Headers.ContentType = new MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/octet-stream");
After I made HttpClient from another application to connect to this method.
Everything works, extracts 200 and the contents of the file. But I can not get the header to read the file name.
BROWSE:
Working with a REST Client I can read the following header attribute:
Content-Disposition: attachment; file name = 814Entes_PG_20160114.txt
, , "invalidHeaders", :

UPDATE:
:
:
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
httpClient.BaseAddress = new Uri(uri);
string authentication = string.Concat(authenticationArgs[0], ":", authenticationArgs[1]);
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation("Authorization", "Basic " + Base64Encode(authentication));
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
HttpRequestMessage req = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "Report/" + type);
req.Content = new StringContent("");
HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.SendAsync(req);
Console.WriteLine(response.StatusCode);
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
string stream = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
Console.Write("Respuesta servicio: " + stream);
Console.WriteLine(stream);
string cp = response.Headers.GetValues("Content-Disposition").ToString();
}
, SO:
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
httpClient.BaseAddress = new Uri(uri);
string authentication = string.Concat(authenticationArgs[0], ":", authenticationArgs[1]);
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation("Authorization", "Basic " + Base64Encode(authentication));
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
HttpRequestMessage req = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "Report/" + type);
req.Content = new StringContent("");
HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.SendAsync(req);
Console.WriteLine(response.StatusCode);
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
string stream = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
Console.Write("Respuesta servicio: " + stream);
Console.WriteLine(stream);
string cp = "";
HttpHeaders headers = response.Headers;
IEnumerable<string> values;
if (headers.TryGetValues("Content-Disposition", out values))
{
cp = values.ToString();
}
