session variable becoming null after webResponse

Question

I am making a email template and this template will be send to the multiple users and in this template there is only a gridview control and I will fill the grid with a session variable, Session variable is having the datatable.

My issue is this when i am using the "WebResponse" for this page then i do not get the session value that is null.(i have cross check that my session Name is same);

code Snippet:

WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(strFullUrl);
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();

what i am doing wrong, Please give some guidance.

Answer 1

By default, Sessions does not persist with HttpWebResponse . Create the helper class called CookieContainer and attach it with your web request .

CookieContainer cookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
WebRequest request = (WebRequest)WebRequest.Create(strFullUrl);
request.CookieContainer = cookieContainer;

WebResponse response = (WebResponse)request.GetResponse();
