C# - Non-Interactive (bot) login

[arienai]

Have finally create my certificate using

https://api.developer.betfair.com/se...28bot%29+login

However there's no C# examples on this page or included in the GIT sample login code.

Any one have any C# examples of how to login using the bot access?

Thanks

public string Login(string username, string password)
{
  string ssoid = String.Empty;
  string[] info;

  try
  {
    string uri = string.Format("https://identitysso.betfair.com/api/login?username={0}&password={1}&login=true&redirectMethod=POST&product=home.betfair.int&url=https://www.betfair.com/", username, password);

    HttpWebRequest myRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
    myRequest.Method = "POST";
    myRequest.Timeout = 5000;
    WebResponse thePage = myRequest.GetResponse();
    info = thePage.Headers.GetValues("Set-Cookie");
    int i = 0;
    while (ssoid == String.Empty && i < info.Length)
    {
      if (info[i].Contains("ssoid=")) ssoid = ExtractSSOID(info[i]);
      ++i;
    }
  }
  catch (System.Exception e)
  {
    Console.WriteLine("\nException Caught!");
    Console.WriteLine("Message :{0} ", e.Message);
  }

  SessionID = ssoid;
  return ssoid;
}

Just trying to move to non interactive logon, and was wondering what this line in the doucmentation means? I'm assuming I just set the password and username to strings containing them - or am I missing something?

Please note: The username and password values should be encoded when making the login request.

HTTP POST data is always encoded when sent to server.
If your password contains special symbols, they are escaped

escape('One + Two = Three')
"One%20+%20Two%20%3D%20Three"

For example space becomes %20 and '=' becomes %3D

Thanks - that's quite obvious when someone explains it!

Hi!

Why is it that your example doesn't include the certificate?
Isn't that mandatory for the Non-Interactive (bot) login ?

Thanks in advance.
