Your channel is pure gold. Thank you for your effort

[@ahmet9424]

Perfect!!
You answered all my questions about httpclient. Thanks a lot. It's great that you mentioned a third-party library (refit). Finally, it would be great if it was the rest client.

Now. It's more clear. Thanks 👍

Great video!! Could you maybe also make a video explaining any pitfalls with regard to the lifecycle of the HttpClient and where (or when) we should update the Api-keys (maybe we have a different api-access key for each logged in user) for each call on the typed HttpClient (i.e. in the program.cs, or in the ctor in client.cs file, or before calling the sendAsync method). I hope my question makes sense : ) Thanks Again!!

I'm not sure exactly what you have in mind. it's true that there might be some potential problems, but on the other hand using IHttpClientFactory solves most of the problems related to using the HttpClient. If you need specific headers for each users than you can add the needed headers in each method method invocation and you pass in the information as parameters or the service can take them from the HttpContext.

Best explanation on youtube

Why in C# to make an API call is such a huge deal...

[@alexmel8448]

Hi, thanks for the video. In the part, you talk about typed HttpClient.
How can I add HTTPCLIENTHANDLRE to the HTTPCLINT you injected?
indeed to add certificate /
thanks.

[@Codewrinkles]

You can configure and add the desired handlers when you register the service.
