How to get raw request body in ASP.NET?

Question

Answer 1

I had a similar requirement to get the raw content and struck the same issue. I found that calling Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin) solved the problem.

This is not a particularly good approach as it makes assumptions about how the underlying infrastructure operates, but it seems to work.
