C＃使用RestSharp删除获取响应405

Question

I try to delete a configuration by calling an Delete API. For my API requests I use Restsharp because it works fine with GET and POST.

Now i have following problem. When I try to call delete I get Error

405 "MethodNotAllowed" .

In my response I have following message:

"HTTP method not allowed, supported methods: GET"

Code snipet:

var client = new RestClient("http://test.de/");
var request = new RestRequest("testrules/test");
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
var response = client.Delete(request);

I also tried the client.Execute() method and adding the id of the element which I want to delete to set over AddParameter() and AddUrlSegment() methods.

I've tracked the response in Fiddler:

DELETE http://test.de/testrules/test HTTP/1.1 
Accept: application/json, application/xml, text/json, text/x-json, text/javascript, text/xml 
User-Agent: RestSharp/105.0.1.0 
Host: test.de
Content-Length: 0
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: Keep-Alive

When i try my request with Advanced RestClient from Chrome i get following request in Fiddler:

DELETE http://test.de/testrules/test HTTP/1.1
Host: test.de
Connection: keep-alive
Authorization: Basic Q29udGludW91czp0ZXN0

Does anybody know a example for Delete with RestSharp? I've looked at this example from stackoverflow: RestSharp simple complete example and on the examples from the RestSharp documentation but nothing of this examples helped me.

Do you have the Rest API service code that you can post? From what you wrote, it feels like the restsharp client issues the Delete request using HTTP DELETE keyword while the Rest API endpoint accepts HTTP GET for the Delete method; but without the info about the server-side code it's hard to tell.
