Difference between RestSharp methods AddParameter and AddQueryParameter using HttpGET

Question

I\'m using RestSharp to call an external API.

This works:

var client = new RestClient(apiUrl);
var request = new RestRequest(myurl, Method.GET);

foreach

To answer your question

AddQueryParameter adds a parameter in the query string as ParameterType.QueryString whereas AddParameter(string, object) adds the parameter as ParameterType.GetOrPost

For more details on each parameter type, see:

GetOrPost: https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp/wiki/ParameterTypes-for-RestRequest#getorpost

QueryString: https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp/wiki/ParameterTypes-for-RestRequest#querystring

To solve your problem

It seems it is unrelated to the type of parameter, because the exception thrown seems to indicate you aren't even connecting to the remote server.

make sure you pass the same apiUrl / myUrl in both cases.
