How I can make asynchronous calls to betfair Exchange APIs using "async...await" of .net framework? Any example of this will be really good.

Here is an example I use in an app. Not sure if this is exactly what you are after. I should say I did this a bit trial and error but it is simple and works well for me.
Much of the above is specific to my app. Main thing is, observe where the async and await occur. Hope this helps.Code:Async Sub rollem() Dim markId As String Do If count > 0 Then bStart.Text = "START" bStart.BackColor = Color.Lime Exit Sub End If If Statecount = 0 Then newindex = FindIndex(lbRaces.SelectedIndex) End If lbRaces.SelectedIndex = check(newindex) markId = RaceArray(check(newindex)).Split("~").GetValue(0) Await GetInfo(markId) ‘This calls GetInfo asynchronously getinfoalert = 0 Statecount2 += 1 RaiseEvent StopLoop(blnCancel) If blnCancel Then Exit Sub tbCseTime.Text = lbRaces.SelectedItem If newindex < check.Length Then newindex += 1 End If If newindex = check.Length Then lbNears.Items.Clear() newindex = 0 End If Statecount = 1 Loop End Sub Async Function GetInfo(ByVal marketId As String) As Task attempts = 0 Dim ListMarketBookResponse As Object = Nothing Dim strRequest As String = "" Dim strMarketBook As String = "" Repeat: Try strRequest = "{""jsonrpc"": ""2.0"", ""method"": ""SportsAPING/v1.0/listMarketBook"", ""params"": {""marketIds"":[""" & marketId & """],""priceProjection"":{""priceData"":[""EX_BEST_OFFERS""],""virtualise"":""true"",""exBestOffersOverrides"":{""bestPricesDepth"":1}}}, ""id"": 1}" ListMarketBookResponse = CreateRequest(strKey, strSessTok, strRequest) ListBox2.Items.Clear() strMarketBook = ListMarketBookResponse.ToString ‘ Lots of other code here I’ve omitted Catch attempts += 1 If attempts < TextBox3.Text Then GoTo Repeat Else Exit Function End If End Try Await Task_MethodAsync() ‘This simply calls a small delay – could call anything, but all async subs/functions must have an accompanying await contained therein End Function
