Hello,

I have a windows service that has a scheduler that fires off every 15 minutes. When it fires off, it collects data from a db and serialize the data into a json object. I need to call some URL and then pass the json object to the url.
Can somebody help with passing this json object to the url?

Thank you in advance.

Are you calling a REST based service?

it's a webapi

You may want to first check with who created the webservice to see how they are expecting the data.

good point. The question indicates a level of "rookieness" shall we say so they probably haven't thought of that.

Well, still not very clear from your reply to my comment. But it sounds like you are trying to call a REST(url) based service/api. Have a look at below article link.

RestFul WCF JSON Service with client and on Mozilla Firefox –REST Client

Please refer code of PassObject_Click event from above article. Post your comments if any difficulty.
